All light whether it’s a flashlight, sunlight, or a light bulb in your house, travels at 186,000 miles per second, or just over 11 million miles per minute. The sun is about 93 million miles from Earth which comes out to about 8 minutes, 20 seconds for the sun’s rays to travel to Earth, or about half the time it takes for us to do a podcast on Hot Topics I International Trade. These 15 minute discussions are available on our website under the media tab.
