Dude, the speed of sound is 767 miles per hour, and that the distance to the Sun is 92,960,000 miles away.

OK, so divide 92,960,000 by 767:

This will give you the number of hours to the Sun at the speed of sound. The answer is 121,199.478 hours.

Divide 121,199.478 by 24 to get the number in days to the Sun. The answer is 5,049.98 Days to the Sun.

Divide that again by the number of days per year and you come to 13 years and 10 months give or take a few a wee bit.

Huzzah! 13 yrs and 10 months is the time required for him to reach the Sun at the speed of Sound.

Your Dudeness, the light on the surface of the moon is coming from the sun. My camera ain't lighting up the moon at night. I hear you! (At the speed of sound...)

What's that curious shadow on the lower right edge of the moon? - Just now discovered it, after enlarging. Could be some sattelite structure, or space station, I guess. Any astronomers here?

This one, exactly 15 seconds earlier, one can see the shadow entering the face of the moon:
