It depends on how fast he's traveling. Pioneer 10 was launched in March 1972 and passed Jupiter in December 1973... a travel time of 21 months. Galileo was launched in October 1989 and did not reach Jupiter until December 1995, over six years later.

How long to get to Jupiter from earth?

The distance between Earth and Jupiter is 483 million miles. Travelling via a very fast space ship would land you on Jupiter in a little over two years. NASA's probes took between three to five years to reach Jupiter.


What would be the weight of a space probe on the surface of Jupiter?

The weight of a space probe on the surface of Jupiter would be significantly greater than its weight on Earth due to Jupiter's strong gravitational pull. Jupiter's gravity is about 24.79 m/s², which is roughly 2.5 times that of Earth's gravity. Therefore, to calculate the weight of the probe on Jupiter, you would multiply its mass by Jupiter's gravitational acceleration. For example, a 1,000 kg probe would weigh approximately 24,790 newtons on Jupiter.
