Lightyears

A light-year is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure vast distances. One light-year is equivalent to approximately 9.461 trillion kilometers or about 5.879 trillion miles.

A light-year is defined by the distance that light travels in a vacuum in one year, which is about 9.461 × 10^12 kilometers.

Light-years are used to measure distances between stars, galaxies, and other celestial objects. They provide a convenient way to express astronomical distances, making it easier to understand the scale of the universe.

Earth's distance from sun

The Earth's average distance from the Sun, known as an astronomical unit (AU), is approximately 149.6 million kilometers or about 93 million miles.

This distance represents the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun, which can vary slightly due to the elliptical shape of Earth's orbit. The Earth’s orbit is not a perfect circle but an ellipse, so the distance varies between about 147.1 million kilometers (91.4 million miles) at perihelion (closest approach) and about 152.1 million kilometers (94.5 million miles) at aphelion (farthest point).

The Earth's distance from the Sun is crucial for understanding solar radiation, climate patterns, and the length of seasons. It provides a baseline measurement used in astronomy and space science to define distances within our solar system and beyond.
