Nice animation. The speed of light is ridiculously slow.

The moon averages about one and a half light seconds away.

The speed of light is ridiculously slow.

In cosmic terms, maybe. For our purposes here on Earth, it's nearly instantaneous.

The speed of light is approximately 186,000 miles per second. The Moon is roughly 240,000 miles from Earth.
