Perhaps you meant to say that the sun is 7 minutes ahead of the angular position it was at 7 minutes ago, when it emitted the light that you now see. Either that, or you are a geocentrist.

Yes, your question is better put : )

And why is it 7 minutes, by the way?

It isn't, it is 8.3 minutes if I recall correctly. I just used 7 as a number. The actual time and distance is not important to the question.

I wasn't asking you a question, I was telling you something. Either you face the fact that you are completely wrong, or face the fact that you are a geocentrist.

Why didn't you use 8 as a number?
