HOW FAST IS LIGHT SPEED LAST I HEARD IT WAS 186,000 MILES PER SECOND OR 669,000,000 MILES PER MIN.. THAT MEANS IT TAKES ABOUT 8 MINUTES FOR LIGHT FROM THE SUN TO REACH EARTH, WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 93,000,000 AWAY. LETS NOW FIGURE JUST HOW FAR IS A LIGHT YEAR , I KNOW YOU HAVE HEARD OF THE TERM BEFORE. WE SO FAR HAVE BROKEN IT DOWN TO AN HOUR AT 669,000,000 MPH NOW MULTIPLY THAT BY 24 AND GET THIS NUMBER 16,056,000,000 MILES IN A DAY. NOW TO GET HOW FAR LIGHT TRAVELS IN A YEAR WE HAVE TO MULTIPLY THIS HUGE NUMBER BY 365 DAYS OR 1 YEAR. THE FINAL PRODUCT IS 5,859,440,000,000 (5 TRILLION, 859 BILLION, 440 MILLION GIVE OR TAKE A FEW MILES) THIS IS THE DISTANCE LIGHT TRAVELS IN A YEAR. AND WE CALL IT A "LIGHT YEAR" NOW YOU CAN FIGURE HOW FAR OTHER STARS AND GALAXY'S ARE IF ITS 1,000 LIGHT YEARS AWAY JUST ADD 3 ZERO'S AFTER THAT LAST NUMBER. MAKES THE MIND HURT JUST THINKING HOW FAR THAT IS. QUESTION: HOW CAN WE GET TO ANOTHER PLANET OUTSIDE OUR SOLAR SYSTEM IF ITS 30 OR MORE LIGHT YEARS AWAY.? THE ANSWER WILL ASTOUND YOU I'LL TRY TO GIVE YOU MY BEST GUESS NEXT BLOG, WHATS YOUR ANSWER?
information about the universe whats in it and the speed its traveling. FUN QUESTIONS TO MAKE YOUR MIND THINK!

"Light Speed and The Universe Theory"
"Light Speed and The Universe Theory"," Does this mean that they are traveling into the past also, therefore making another universe in the past? Just how big can this universe get? It seems endless. Maybe that's the answer to the never ending universe. One younger, one older starting over again in a never ending cycle. Now I wonder if that means you can only go so far into the past, or can you get past the big bang and be in another universe on a different cycle, and how many times can you do this just like everything else having to do with the universe; its probably endless. And I also believe they need to rewrite the big bang theory because it doesn't fit into the scheme of things the way I see it. And if they truly are going faster than light we want be able to see them in the future if we live that long. Scientist know a lot about space but haven't even touched just how big it really is. WHAT'S UP
