How far is the constellation cephues from earth?

Any constellation is a group of stars that appear to form some kind of pattern, but have no connection with each other. They all happen to be in roughly the same direction from us, but they're all at different distances. So there's no such thing as a constellation's distance from us.

How many years would it take to get from earth to Jupiter?

The Galileo Spacecraft was launched October 18th, 1989, and entered the orbit of Jupiter December 7th, 1995. The total trip time was reduced by gravity slingshots past Venus and Earth, making the total trip time a little over six years.


How much sunlight does Mars get?

All things being equal, sunlight on Mars at aphelion would be about 36% as strong as sunlight on Earth. But Mars has a thinner atmosphere, so this will brighten it a little. Because your eyes adapt to the available light, the difference would be less noticable. Without a brighter comparison (sunny day vs. cloudy day here), the light would not seem intrinsically less. Since the Sun shows a smaller disk on Mars, shadows are sharper.
