The sun is 93 million miles. The next closest star is Alpha centauri which is 4.5 light years away. A Light year is 6 trillion miles, so that means 27 trillion miles away.

Te nearest star is about 22,029,709,320,000 miles from the sun and that is the nearest.
Here is the math light travels about 186,282 miles per second.
Times that by 60 that is one minute. Then 60 again. Then by 24 for a day. Then 365 per year then use light years. One light year is about 5,874,589,152,000 miles a year. These figures are rounded.

most stars are millions or billions of light years away and some of the glaxies we can see on a dark nite or with some aid is trillions of light years away. think about it, for all we know thoese stars have long since died and gone supernova and given birth to civilizations which rose and fell millions of times.
we are grain of sand in the desert. enjoy life for nothing is truely important on the grand scale of things

God did no longer be certain to make the celebs far away, on condition that there's no medical info that God exists or that He created the celebs.
