You should review the units of speed before posting.

You are right, I was wrong

Thanks for pointing this out.

During the minimum of solar activity, a fast solar wind (on average 800 km/s) is expelled from the coronal holes (defined below), located mainly around the North and South poles of the Sun. This fast solar wind is relatively slightly variable.

 Light from a stationary source travels at 300,000 km/sec (186,000 miles/sec).
