  • Understanding Light-Years: Distance vs. Time
    There's a bit of a misunderstanding in the question.

    * A light-year is a unit of distance, not time. It's the distance light travels in one year.

    * A year is a unit of time.

    So, the question is like asking "How many meters are in a second?" You can't directly convert them because they measure different things.
