About 1.5 light-seconds to the Moon.
The distance to the moon is about 1.3 light seconds or about 0.000000032 light years.
Laser light propagates at the same speed as radio waves or any other form of electromagnetic radiation. That is 186,282.4 miles per second. The moon averages about 239 thousand miles. Light, therefore requires roughly 1.3 seconds to cross the gulf dividing the earth and moon.
The moon is about 0.0000000406 light years away from earth. Clearly, the moon is MUCH too close (238,000 or 239,000 miles or so) for the distance to be rendered meaningfully in light years.
Yes but only about 1.3 seconds ago as this is how long light takes to reach us from the Moon.
1.28 seconds at the moon's average distance from earth ... same as for a radio signal.
Approximately 1.28 light seconds away from Earth is the Moon. The average distance between Earth and the Moon is about 1.28 light seconds.
The distance to the moon is about 1.3 light seconds or about 0.000000032 light years.

Earth to moon . . . 1.28 seconds Sun to earth . . . 8 minutes 19 seconds
From the Earth, about one and a half seconds; from the sun, about 8 minutes.
At its average distance from the earth, the moon is 1.28 light seconds away.
I shined my flashlight at the moon; it took about 1.3 seconds to get there, and another 1.3 seconds to bounce back to me.
Moonlight takes 1 min 3 seconds to reach earth.
