Our Sun : Distance from the Earth
How long would it take for a human being to get to the sun? The distance from the earth to the sun is approximately 94 million miles. Sometimes the sun is a little further away, sometimes a little closer, depending on what season it is. That‘s so far that it would take 4,400 years to get there on foot, 166 years by high-speed train and 22 years by jumbo jet. The sun‘s rays, however, travel so fast that it only takes them 8 minutes to get from the sun to the earth. Light travels 186,000 miles per second, which makes it a million times faster than a jet plane.
