How long would it take to travel at a speed of 90 kilometres per hour from the Earth to Makemake?

If you waited until Makemake was at the closest point in its orbit, it would still be about 5,609,925,000 kilometers away. At 90 kilometers per hour, that would be 62,332,500 hours, or 7111 years.

∙ 11y agoThe dwarf planet Makemake is a "Kuiper Belt Object", which orbits far out from Neptune. The travel time will depend on the speed, and so far, there is no vehicle made that can do the journey at all.
If it were critically important to do so, a crash project to launch a robotic probe to Makemake could probably be complete in about 8 years, with about 5 years travel time after launch. It would be VERY expensive, but the technologies developed would be invaluable.

∙ 14y agoThe dwarf planet Makemake is in a fairly elliptical orbit with a perihelion of 38.5AU and an aphelion of 53AU. Traveling at the speed of light, 186,000 miles per second, it would take about 5.2 hours to travel between Earth and Makemake when they are closest together, and more like 8.6 hours when they are farthest apart.
To give you a hint about how vast space is, the nearest star to our Sun is Proxima Centauri, which is 4.2 Light YEARSaway.

Does the body falling to the earth travel at the same speed from the very beginning of its travel?
No. Its speed keeps increasing as it falls.
How fast does is the speed of light travel around the earth?
Light cannot travel around the Earth, since light travels at a straight line and the Earth is round. The speed of light is 300,000 kilometers per second.
What speed does earth travel when it completes one revolution around the sun?
30km/hr
Why do earthquake waves travel fast in the crust but slowest in the interior of the earth?
Earthquake waves travel fastest in the interior of the Earth, as speed of waves increases as we go inside the Earth. The speed of a wave depends on the properties of the medium it travels in. The wave propagates faster in the denser and heavier core.
