问题: 请帮我翻译一下这片英语文章

内容如下:
The fast speed of light produces some odd facts.It costs about 8 minutes for sunlight to reach us.If you look at the light of the moon tonight,remember that the light rays left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reche you.The nearest star is so far away from us.You can see the light from it tonight start to get to you 4 years ago at at a speed of nearly 2 million kilometres every minute.The light from some of tonight's started on its journey towards you even before you came to this world.
So, strictly speaking, we should not say,"The stars are shining brightly tonight." We have to say,"The stars look nice. They were shining four years ago but their light has just reached our esrth."
(只是一片有关于光的科技文章)

解答:

最快的光速产生了一些奇怪的现象。光要从太阳表面到达地球大约需要8分钟。今晚如果你看到月光,记住那束光线已经是月球1.3秒前发出来的光了。最近的恒星都离我们很远。你今晚就可以看到它发出的光,但那些光已经在4年前就以每分钟将近两百万公里的速度出发了。今晚的某些恒星的光芒,它们到地球的旅程,甚至在你出生之前就已经开始了。
因此,严格地,我们不应该说,“这些星星今晚多么明亮啊!”我们得说,“这些星星看起来很亮。他们4年前发出的耀眼光芒现在才到达我们地球。
