  1. I can't believe our solar system is 8.4 light hours in diameter! And a conversation between someone on Earth and someone on the Moon must be super awkward waiting so long for a response

  2. a light year is about 6 trillion miles
    it would take 1.3 seconds for light to reach the moon
    a light minute is 11 million miles
    it is 8.3 minutes for light to get to the sun from earth
    the universe has billions of galixies.
    the light hour is 670 million miles
    soler system is about 5.6 billion miles
    it is 8.4 light ours across
    the universe holds billions of soaler systems

  3. scientists think the milky way is 100000 light years across. The nearest other galaxy is the Andromeda galaxy, which is 2,200,000 light years away.

  4. since Earth is so small compared to the galaxy, earth compared to the universe is soooooooooo tiny! I cant believe that our voices travel at the speed of light too. That's so cool!
