how long would it take to get to the planet jupiter from earth
Confidence votes 30.1K. If the Earth and Jupiter are lined up properly and you assume Jupiter is 480,000,000 miles from the sun and earth is 93,000,000 miles from the sun and the shuttle travels 17,500 mph:480,000,000-93,000,000=387,000,000 (distance from Earth to Jupiter).387,000,000/17,500=22,114 hours or 921 days or 2.522 years.Note however, that space shuttles aren't designed to totally escape Earth's gravitational pull and wouldn't be able fly that far away.80,000,000-93,000,000=387,000,000 (distance from Earth to Jupiter). 387,000,000/17,500=22,114 hours or 921 days or 2.522 years.
