In order to get a feeling for an answer to this question, we'll toss around some
very approximate numbers.
The plane of Saturn's orbit is inclined about 2.5 degrees to the plane of the earth's orbit.
But to make things simpler, let's assume that both planets orbit in the same plane.
The earth's average distance from the sun is about 149.6 million km.
Saturn's average distance from the sun is about 1.433 billion km.
So the closest Saturn can ever be to earth ... when both planets are lined up in the same direction
from the sun ... is about (1,433 - 149.6) = 1,283.4 million km.
Now to pick the route. For reasons too complex to go into here, you could never travel a straight line
from one planet to another. But let's say you could ... that's the shortest possible distance.
Now the problem is: How long does it take to travel 1,283.4 million km at a speed of 200,000 km/hr.
(1,283.4 million) / (200,000) = 64,170 hours
= 2,673.75 days
= 7.32 years
3 years if you are going at 17 km/sec
It would take 17.5 years.
long time compare to earth
At 60mph you would travel 60 miles in one hour. To travel one mile (1/60 the distance) it would take 1/60 the time.There are 60 minutes to an hour, so at 60mph it will take you 1 minute to travel one mile.
How long it takes to get to Saturn depends on which route the shuttle takes. Generally, it can take between six and nine years to reach Saturn.
It depends how fast you are going.
9 days
27,251 years.
You can't get to Saturn in a jet. It can't achieve enough thrust to escape the earth's gravity.

1 hour
Depends on your speed. If you're going at 230 kilometer/hour, then it would take pretty much one hour. If you're going at 115 km/hour it would take two hours.
Saturn rotates quickly on its axis.Each day is only 10.67 Earth hours long. Saturn moves around the sun at an average speed oF34,812 per hour.
