This would obviously have a very large variable of the speed of the rocket, but here is the equation to figure is out
((((1.51368454*10^19/S)/60)/60)/24)/365.25=T
S being the speed of the rocket in meters/sec
1.51368454*10^19 being a light year distance
divided by 60 seconds
divided by 60 mins
divided by 24 hours
divided by 365.25 days
So for example if this rocket was traveling at a constant speed of 8000m/s
1.51368454*10^19/8000/60/60/24/365.25=59 957 210.8
Which is almost 60 million years
