How long does it take sunlight to reach Earth?

Someday the sun will expand so much that it will engulf the Earth and everything on it. Thankfully, we've still got billions of years before that happens, so no need to panic just yet (although it never hurts to plan ahead).

But let's say one of those UAPs decides to blow up the star at the center of our solar system — if you're just a regular person hanging around in the sun, you wouldn't even notice. Not immediately.

Thanks to the time it takes for sunlight to travel through the void of space and help us make tea, you'd have this exact amount of time before things went dark.
