Oh, isn't that a lovely question? Just imagine light dancing across the canvas of the sky. Well, light travels at about 186,282 miles per second, so it would take just about 0.016 seconds for light to travel 3000 miles. Isn't that just amazing to think about?

Oh, dude, light travels at about 186,282 miles per second, so it would take roughly 0.016 seconds for light to travel 3000 miles. But hey, who's counting, right? Like, light's just cruising along at its own speed, not worried about traffic or anything.

3000 miles (1609 meters/1 mile)

= 4827000 meters

Light travels at 2.998 X 10^8 m/s

so

4827000 meters (1 s/2.998 X 10^8 m/s)

= 0.016 seconds
