Speed of light they appeared 13 billion years ago, when the universe was less than a billion years old. The fact that more distant objects appear to be younger, due to the finite speed of light, allows astronomers to infer the evolution of stars, of galaxies, and of the universe itself. Astronomical distances are sometimes expressed in light-years, especially in popular science publications and media. A light-year is the distance light travels in one year, around 9461 billion kilometres, 5879 billion miles, or 0.3066 parsecs. In round figures, a light year is nearly 10 trillion kilometres or nearly 6 trillion miles. Proxima Centauri,
Unit distance graph graph so that the edges are exactly the unit distance pairs, may greatly differ from each other: the 2"n"-vertex crown graph may be embedded in four dimensions so that all its edges have unit length, but requires at least "n" − 2 dimensions to be embedded so that the edges are the only unit-distance pairs . It is NP-hard, and more specifically complete for the existential theory of the reals, to test whether a given graph is a unit distance graph, or is a strict unit distance graph . It is also NP-complete to determine whether a unit distance graph
