distance accross the milkeyway, in light years?

We're about two-thirds of the way from the center, and that is twenty to thirty thousand light years; so the diameter would be sixty to ninety thousand light years.

Depends on how fast your going.  It's 794 million miles away!  So divide that by how fast you want to go and you'll know.

light travels at 186,000 miles per second, the earth is 25,000 miles around....\n\n25000/186000= 0.1344 seconds

Using google earth measurement tool\n\nIt is arround 4,096.96 miles (6,593.42 km) exactly to the city

Neptune is what, 2 or 3 billion miles away?  A light year is 6 trillion miles, so the distance is less than .001 light years.  Light years are practical only when measuring interstellar distances.

1 lightyear = 9.4605 × 10^15 meters\n70 miles/hr = 9.875*10^8 meters/year\n\n9.4605 × 10^15 meters/ 9.875*10^8 meters/year = 9.58*10^6 years

We've been measureing this quantity for a number of years, and we are getting better results all the time.  The best news is that the different techniques we have been using all agree that the distance is about 26,000 light years.

The distance between Land's End - the extreme westward point of the English mainland in western Cornwall - to John O' Groats - the extreme northern point of Great Britain in northeastern Scotland - is 875 miles (1400 km)\n\nThe coastline length around mainland Great Britain is 11 072.76 miles.

The distances between stars is quite large .The general convention of Kilometers or miles cannot be used due o the large numbers that we would have to deal with .\nLight is defined to have a constant speed of 299792458m/s . This number is precise to the last digit .The distance trvelled by light in a year can be found using this velocity\nthe distance would be 299792458*60*60*24*365= a large number suitable to denote lage distances \nwhen we say that the distance is 5000 ly we do not wait for light to complete the  journey .We determine distances using a different method and then use the above number to find th distance

1 lightyear is the distance a beam of light can travel in a vacuum in one year.  Given that the speed of light is roughly 3*(10^8) meters per second, or about 670.6 million miles per hour, then 93 million miles is about 1.58*(10^-5) lightyears.  Another way to look at it, is that it takes about 7.21 minutes for light from the sun to reach earth, and they are roughly 93 million miles apart.

Scaffel Pike is only 3209ft high. Its an approx 4.5mile walk, so top to bottom in a couple of hours should be easy enough.

It's the distance light travels in a year, ie about\n\n5,878,625,373,183.61 statute miles.\n\n(Based on a reference year of exactly 365.25 days (each of exactly 24 hours). This is the value recommended by the International Astronomical Union. It is not a universal standard.)
