A light-year is the distance that light travels in a vacuum in one Julian year (365.25 days). It's a unit of astronomical distance.

A light-year is an incredibly vast distance, covering trillions of miles. 10,000 feet is a very small distance in comparison, hence the tiny result after conversion.

This specific conversion (10,000 feet to light-years) is rarely used directly. However, understanding the conversion principles helps in appreciating the scale differences between everyday units and astronomical units.

There are 5,280 feet in one mile.
