उत्तर
- The astronomical object closest to earth is the moon.
- Light takes 1s to reach from the moon to the earth. It means that if one travels at the speed of light, it will take 1 s to reach the moon.
- Hence, as spacecraft travels at a much smaller speed, it takes a longer time to reach the moon.
