From my knoledge only a few seconds - minutes because of the high velocity heading down on earth
The space shuttle was designed for low earth orbit (between 200-300 nautical miles) and could not reach the moon.
It takes the Shuttle about 2 days to reach the International Space Station.
The space shuttle takes 8 minutes to reach orbit.
It takes about 8 minutes from launch for the shuttle to reach space. How is that for speed? Once in space, the space shuttle and the International Space Station orbit the Earth about 16 times a day. They are actually traveling faster than a bullet! That fast rate of speed along with Earth's gravity keep them in orbit around our planet
About 66 hours.
It could not, the shuttle cannot leave low earth orbit

Earth is 588 million kilometers away from Jupiter. On a space shuttle, it would take about 2 years to reach Jupiter from Earth.
The Space shuttle cannot go beyond low earth orbit, but assuming you were traveling at the shuttle's orbital speed of 17,600 mph it would take approximately 7 months to reach the sun (the nearest star to earth), and approximately 160,000 years to reach Proxima Centauri, the nearest star to the sun.
it takes 3 days to reach the moon
8 minutes.
NASA's space shuttles were not designed for long space missions; the initial idea was to build shuttles to reach the Moon. The present-day space shuttle can only reach low Earth orbit. The aging shuttle fleet (approaching thirty years old) is due to be retired. The Orion spacecraft will carry the next major American space missions.
The Space Shuttle does not go to the moon. It only orbits the Earth.
