The correct response is: "It would take about 25,000 years for light to travel from our solar system to the center of the Milky Way."
This means that the distance to the center of the Milky Way is so vast that even light, which travels at the fastest speed in the universe (approximately 299,792 kilometers per second, or about 186,282 miles per second), takes 25,000 years to cover that distance.
