If you could drive through space at 75 mph how long would it take to reach the sun?

The sun is about 93,000,000 miles away, so at 75mph, this would take about
93 000 000 / 75 = 1 240 000 hours
~= 51 667 days
~= 141.5 years.
Light travels at about 186 000 miles per second, so it takes about
93 000 000 / 186 000 = 500 seconds
= 8 minutes 20 seconds to reach us.
If the sun was to stop shining, we wouldn't know about it for a bit over 8 minutes!

Who proved rockets could reach outer space?
The German scientist Hermann Oberth, along with others such as Robert H. Goddard and Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, made significant contributions to proving that rockets could reach outer space through their research and experiments in the early 20th century.

If light rays did not travel through space there would be no way for them to reach Earth.
How long would it take to reach Pluto in a car?
Assuming a car could travel through space at a constant speed of 60 mph (96.5 km/h) without any stops, it would take over 7,000 years to reach Pluto, which is about 3.67 billion miles (5.9 billion km) away from Earth on average. This calculation does not take into consideration the need for fuel, life support systems, or the lack of a road to drive on in space.

How do you move space from one hard drive to the other I have a C drive with 14 Gb space and a DATA D drive with 23 Gb of space The C is 90 percent used while the data drive is only 25 percent used?
get a new pc, or at least a new hard drive! you can "move" space from one drive to another, but you can move files from one drive to the other. you could easily double your storage space for under $40
How did the heat reach your hand under the lamp?
