The maximum speed achieved by the shuttle is 17,500mph
The Andromeda Galaxy is about 2.54 million light years away, which is about 1.5 x 1019 miles.
This gives a total time of 857,142,857,142,857 hours, which equates to about 97,700,000,000 years.
So about 98 billion years.
Don't forget to bring along a good book.

How has the space shuttle helped space exploration?
We can now travel in space and examine everything out there and we wouldn't be able to do that with out the space shuttle.

How has the space shuttle changed space travel?
it has changed the space travel as it was a reusable which saved money of the particular space agency
