How long time spent the rocket travelling from the earth to the moon?

Question

1. With today's technology, how long time spent the rocket travelling from the earth to the moon, mars, jupiter, and pluto's orbit?
2. When will the NASA's next space travelling to the moon, and mars?

Answer 1

Apollo took 3 days to go to the Moon. Any space craft planning to stop at the Moon will take 3 days to get there. The New Horizons unmanned space craft recently sent to Pluto took only 9 hours to pass the Moon, but it didn't stop. It was going WAY too fast to stop even if it wanted to.

The various unmanned space craft that have been sent to Mars all took about 8 to 10 months to get there.

The New Horizons space craft passed Jupiter 11 months after launch.

The New horizons space craft will take 9 years to get to Pluto.

On August 4 2007 NASA launched the Phoenix space craft to Mars. It will take 10 months to get there,arriving May 25, 2008.

NASA has no firm plans for another mission to the Moon in the next few years. They are planning to send new manned missions there in 2020 or so, but those plans may change.

Answer 2

1. 1 day, 6 months, 9 months, 8 years

2. 20 or 30 years If they decide to do it.

this is just my estimate. factors include:

how much fuel you want to use
how big the space craft is
I assume an assembly and launch from space
I assume 1 g of acceleration.

Answer 3

Sorry butty yet on the same time as that should make an particularly exciting study and / or night on the flicks, i cant incredibly take your question heavily. identity particularly the Moon landing conspiracy theorists to bang on with their critiques of the Landings to be honest. "via the whole of human historical past, every time guy has been waiting to get to a clean territory he has colonised it". i like this area makes me think of of how we Irish made the English back off a splash after 800 years :) eire Abu.
