az_lender say: If I start at the sun's surface, the photons travel to the earth's atmosphere in a few minutes, where some of them are reflected away. Those that hit your skin directly keep you warm and help you to make vitamin D, but more importantly, the chemical energy that keeps your body going comes from plants that use sunlight to photosynthesize sugars, and from animals you eat, that have eaten those plants. The energy that comes to you from industry is also nearly all solar -- fossil fuels represent stored solar energy and hydroelectric power is made possible by the sun's evaporation of earth's surface waters.

Frank say: Where do we start? At the surface or the fusion reactions within the sun. If at surface...light makes a bee line for every planet and object in the solar system.it take 8 minutes plus or minus.
If within...it can take 100,000 yesrs before a photon manages to make to thevsurface.
