A proper scientist like myself does not use imperial, as the SI (Systeme Internationale) is m/s or km/h.
Light speed in all materials is(are you ready)
3x10^8 m/s
300,000,000 m/s
300,000 km/s
108, 000,000 km/h

light travels at a constant, finite speed of 186,000 mi/sec. A traveler, moving at the speed of light, would circum-navigate the equator approximately 7.5 times in one second. By comparison, a traveler in a jet aircraft, moving at a ground speed of 500 mph, would cross the continental U.S. once in 4 hours.

a delorian can go over 88mph so the speed of light is alot faster than that, probably well over 100 mph
