A.
speed of satellites
B.
speed of ships
C.
distance between bodies in the universe
Answer
D.
speed of rockets

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
A light year is a way of measuring distance. That doesn't make much sense because "light year" contains the word "year," which is normally a unit of time. Even so, light years measure distance. You are used to measuring distances in either inches/feet/miles or centimeters/meters/kilometers, depending on where you live.
