The presenter starts by describing the general structure of our solar system and the Milky Way, which is one of the billions of galaxies in the universe. They explain how astronomical distances are measured in light years and use the speed of light to calculate these distances. The lecture also includes two examples of how to calculate the distance between stars and galaxies using light years.\n
