Light travels at 186,000 miles per hour, and the Earth orbits about 93,000,000 miles from the Sun. When you do the math, you find that the Sun's light takes about 500 seconds to reach the Earth. There are 60 seconds in one minute, so the Earth is about 8.3 light-minutes away from the Sun.


How does the heat reach the sun?

With the exception of vanishingly small amounts from other stars, heat does not reach the sun. The sun is a source of heat due to the nuclear fusion underway in its interior.


Is air around the lighting hotter then around the sun?

Lightning can reach temperatures around 30,000 oC whereas the surface temperature of the Sun is only about 5,500 oC. However the corona can reach temperatures of around 3,000,000 oC while the core is over 15,000,000 oC
