For the record, *one* light year, the *distance* light travels in a year, at its constant speed of 186,000 miles per second, works out to about 5.9 TRILLION miles. That’s 5,900 billion miles! ...in ONE light year. This thing they estimate at 10,000 light years away. Meanwhile, there are galaxies in our universe that are over 12 billion light years distant.
