A light-second is a unit of distance that measures how far light travels in one second in a vacuum. Since the speed of light is approximately \(299,792,458\) meters per second, a light-second is equivalent to about \(299,792,458\) meters, or approximately \(300,000\) kilometers (or about \(186,282\) miles).
