The distance from Earth to Sun is about 149.6 million km (93 million miles).
What does this distance mean:
A trip of about 179 years traveling with 60 miles per hour.
Even the light coming from Sun needs about 8 minutes to reach us, while it would take only a little bit more than a tenth of a second for the light to travel around the Earth.
However, the distance between us an our Sun is pretty small compared with the distance to the next closest star, which would reached by the same light only after traveling 4 years and 4 month.
