I have heard the name, but had no idea that's how you pronounced it (I'd only ever read it; never heard it).

It's a fairly common German name, and they definitely don't pronounce it "coke" 😂

At c as well. For example, if the sun suddenly disappeared we wouldn't know about it in any way for 8 minutes or so. Then the lights would go out and the Earth's path through space would change.
