You question should be “How MUCH is 14 light years”. These guys will retire on grant money.

186,000 miles/sec x 3600 sec/hour x 24 hours/day x 365 days/year = ??

14 Light Years * 186,000 Miles/Second * 3600 Seconds/Hour * 24 Hour/Day * 365.25 Day/Year = 82,175,990,400,000 Miles

So, 82.2 Trillion Miles
