How long does it take to get to Pluto?

After traveling about 9 months, New Horizons will be about 2.9 billion miles away from the Sun. It’s still going to take another 9 months to travel towards Pluto, and then another 6 months to reach its destination. It will now take approximately 9.5 years to get to Pluto and the spacecraft will be about 0.98 AU away from the Sun by then.

How long does it take to get to Pluto from Mars?

It would take a mission to Pluto and back about 6.5 years. It would take a little longer than that if the probe had to travel at the speed of light (the fastest possible speed in our solar system). Assuming the probe’s fuel held out for the entire journey, it would take an additional five years to make it from Mars to Pluto.

How long does it take to get to Pluto from Earth?

The journey to Pluto will be an incredibly long one, taking about 9.5 years, covering more than 300 billion kilometers. The spacecraft will zip around the Sun at about 30 kilometers per second, so it will take approximately 243 days to reach its destination. For comparison, it takes a spacecraft travelling at the same speed as New Horizons about 16.9 hours to reach the asteroid Bennu.

How long does it take to get to Pluto from the Moon

The trip from the Moon to Pluto takes about 6.8 years, and because Pluto is so far away, it will take you about 393 days to reach it. If you're trying to beat Pluto around the Sun, you'll need to travel at approximately 31 miles per second, which is about 11 miles per second faster than the fastest spacecraft ever sent to the Sun.

How long does it take to get to Pluto from the Sun?

The journey from here to Pluto and back takes about 88 years. Pluto is currently about 393 AU from the Sun, which takes about 88 years at the speed of light. That means it would take approximately 88 years for a spacecraft to fly from here to Pluto, and another 88 years for it to return. However, the journey is not instantaneous; it takes an estimated 248 years for light to reach Pluto from the Sun. This means that, if we want to travel to Pluto and back in a
