Light

Light travels so Fast that:

>it takes light from the Sun just 8 minutes             
  30 seconds to reach the Earth.

>Light reflected from the Moon takes just 1.3
  seconds to reach the Earth.

>A ship 10 km from a lighthouse would receive
  its light just 0.000 03 seconds (or 300 000 of
  a second ) after it was emitted.
