    I have a math question for anyone here:
    
    The GOES satellites monitor X-rays from the Sun.  What would be the 
    difference in time ( a matter of seconds?) between when solar x-rays hit 
    the GOES sats and then hit the surface of the Earth?
    
    I hope the question is clear and if not I will re-ask.
    
    Thanking you in advance for your reply.
