The Sun is approximately 93,000,000 miles (150,000,000 km) or 1 AU (Astronomical unit) from Earth. Light would take 8.3 minutes. Voyager 1 ~38,000 mph would reach the Sun in 101 days. A Boeing 747 at cruising speed ~550 mph would take over 19 years. An average car ~@ 70mph, would get you there 152 years later. (… and require over 2.5 million gallons of fuel) On a horse ~30 mph, it would be grey (and dead) 354 years later. By foot: At ~3 mph, you would reach the Sun in - wait for it. 3,540 years.
Sunlight can travel through space for about 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from the sun to Earth. Most of the sunlight reaches the Earth's surface, with some wavelengths being absorbed or scattered in the atmosphere.
Light is a form of energy that travels at 300000km every second.even though it travels so quickly, it still takes 8 minutes to reach us from the sun. So, if the sun stopped shining right now, we probably wouldn't notice until 8 minutes later, when we'd be left in the dark.
Depends on the speed you travel. At the speed of light it would take 8 minutes. Sorry but if your going to ask a question be more specific. And we have already sent ships into orbits closer then mercery, so technically we have gotten really close. Why is your question stated in terms of what will happen not what would happen.
Be more specific and get the time correct, unless your planing to actually go there...
It is different for each star, as it depends on how far away the star is. Whatever the star's distance in light years is the number of years it takes for its light to reach us. The nearest star other than the sun, Proxima Centauri, is 4.2 light years away. The varthest that can be seen without a telescope are more than 1,000 light years away.
Eventually when a star has used all its energy up and becomes a dead lump of matter it could be as cold as "empty" space. That's about -270ºC minimum. (Or +273 Kelvin, because of the cosmic background radiation.)
But the coldest star to date found is 97ºC. That is not much hotter than a normal cup of coffee and its been named as CFBDSIR 1458 10b. It is a "brown dwarf star" and it is believed it lacked the mass to become a "real" star.

i believe the lowest it has ever been is -300000 degrees celcius that or without the minus cuz i really wasnt payin attention in class yesterday don't get me wrong im guessing you werent either even tho i go to tv lava lamp high school in Antarctica where it is to hot to think
WeekendWarrior44: actually I calculated everything myself and if u walked at an average speed of 72 meters per minute non stop it would take 3,948.11593 years 3,948.11593 = 205,302.028 weeks = 1,437,114.2 days = 34,490,740.8 hours = 2,069,444,000 minutes = 124,166,700,000 seconds
About 5500° C degrees Celsius, at the surface.
In the centre of the Sun, the temperature is millions of degrees Celsius.

Does sunlight reach the abyssal plains?
No, sunlight does not reach the abyssal plains. The abyssal plains are located in the deep ocean, typically at depths of 3,000 to 6,000 meters, where sunlight cannot penetrate. This lack of sunlight creates a dark and cold environment in this region.
How long does it takes the sunlight to reach the Earth?
It takes light around 8 minutes and 19 seconds to reach the earth from the sun.
Does it take 215 or 2000 or 2000000 or 20000000 for the sun to reach the earth?

What is the length of time for sunlight to reach earth?
It takes approximately 8 minutes and 20 seconds for sunlight to reach Earth from the Sun.
How long does it take for sunlight to reach earth if sun sets at 5 o'clock?
Since sunlight travels at the speed of light, it takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds for sunlight to reach Earth from the Sun. So, if the Sun sets at 5 o'clock, the sunlight reaching Earth at that time actually left the Sun about 8 minutes and 20 seconds prior.
Does sunlight reach the abyssal plains?
No, sunlight does not reach the abyssal plains. The abyssal plains are located in the deep ocean, typically at depths of 3,000 to 6,000 meters, where sunlight cannot penetrate. This lack of sunlight creates a dark and cold environment in this region.
Why does little sunlight reach coniferous forests?
Sufficient sunlight does reach coniferous forests otherwise they would not thrive.
How far inland did the 2011 japan tsumami reach?
it reach far far in
Why is there no light in the midnight zone of the ocean?
Because it is so far deep only 1% of light gets through
Why is svalbard 24hrs dark?
Because it is well above the Arctic Circle, where the Earth is tilted too far from the sun during winter months for any sunlight to reach it. During summer, however, it is opposite - 24 hours of sunlight.
How can sunlight reach the inside of a leaf?
by photosynthesis
Where is sunlight found?
Every where the sun can reach.
What organisms does require sunlight to live?
Some that live in the bottom of the ocean, where no sunlight can reach it.
How long does it takes the sunlight to reach the Earth?
It takes light around 8 minutes and 19 seconds to reach the earth from the sun.
Does the sun penetrates the aphotic zone of a marine biome?
No, the aphotic zone in a marine biome is the deep, dark layer where sunlight cannot penetrate. This zone lies below the photic zone, where sunlight can reach and support photosynthesis.
Does it take 215 or 2000 or 2000000 or 20000000 for the sun to reach the earth?

Can plants grow with out sunlight?
Yes, but they will not be as green. Also, plants will naturally grow faster without sunlight in the hope that they will be tall enough to reach sunlight.
