To be more precise using relativity, the sunlight gets here instantaneously, Travelling at the speed of light means distances in the direction of travel shrink to zero (lenth contraction) So from the light beam's point of veiw it takes zero time. Howerver, as we on earth are at reast w.r.t the light, time dilation sais that 8 minutes go by here.
