A light-year is equal to:
exactly 9,460,730,472,580.8 km

thats 9460730472580800 meters

from now on L is 9460730472580800 meters

there are 31 556 926 seconds in a year
(4.2 * L [m]) / 8000 [m/s] / 31,556,926 [s] = 157391 years


----
u unit of distance
y = unit of 1 year

a light year is 1 u/(u/y)

my original equation:
(299792458 [m/s] / 8000 [m/s]) * 4.2 [u/(u/y)] all units cancel out except year

NEVER CHALLENGE DORK, TWAT.
