The moon is about 1.278 light-seconds from Earth.Converting that figure to the equivalent fraction of a year, I get0.000 000 040 486 light-year (rounded)
167 light years
Ascella is approximately 165 light years away from Earth. This means that the light we see from Ascella today actually started its journey towards Earth 165 years ago.
The nearest star to Earth is the Sun. The pole star, also known as Polaris, is about 433 light-years away. The Moon is much closer to Earth, at an average distance of about 238,855 miles.
The Pleiades star cluster is located about 440 light years away from Earth.

Like on Earth you can see millions of light years into space.
The average distance to the Moon is 384,399 kilometres = 4.06318742 × 10-8 light years (Note the minus) The moon is only a tiny fraction of one light year from earth. It takes light from the sun eight minutes to reach earth, and the moon is much closer to earth than the sun. Measuring such a small distance in light years is possible but impractical. ======================================= The moon is roughly 1.27 light seconds from the earth. (rounded) 1.27 light seconds is the same as 0.0000000406 light year. (rounded)
Depends on the speed. At the speed of light, it takes a little over a second.
No, the far side of the moon never receives direct sunlight. This is because the moon is tidally locked with the Earth, meaning only one side faces us. The far side remains in darkness, except for reflected light from the Earth.
167 light years
102 light years from earth
The "nearside" of the Moon also receives Earthshine, sunlight reflected from the Earth which then hits the Moon. The full Earth is about 10 times brighter than the full moon!
Approximately 4.2 light-years.
Phrekad is approximately 48.6 light-years away from Earth.
Ascella is approximately 165 light years away from Earth. This means that the light we see from Ascella today actually started its journey towards Earth 165 years ago.
hercules is 27.4 light years away from Earth
