How far is the Earth from celestial bodies in the solar system?
But if we could build a spacecraft with a speed of light of 1,080 million km / h, how long would it take humans to discover distant planets in the solar system?
The distance from the Earth to the Sun is about 149.6 million kilometers. Our current passenger spacecraft only reaches the highest speed of 40,000km / h. At this rate, it takes a long time for us to come to explore the Sun and other planets in our solar system.
