It depends on how fast you travel. If you travel as fast is it is possible to travel (i.e. at the speed of light) then while it takes light 8.32 minutes to get from the Sun to the Earth, it takes light 43.3 minutes to get from the Sun to Jupiter.
NASA's Galileo spacecraft was originally supposed to take only 2 years to reach Jupiter following a direct flight path. It was supposed to launch from the space shuttle Challenger, but after the disaster, NASA decided to give it a slower route that involved several gravitational flybys around Venus and Earth. In the end, it took about 6 years to reach Jupiter. I'm doing a paper and I need to know how long it would approximately take for a spacecraft to get from Earth to Jupiter, assuming you launch it at the right time, when Earth and Jupiter are closest. Even more specifically, to get to Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, but Jupiter's fine too. I'm assuming it's about a year considering Mars takes about six months it takes approximately 3 years with today's rechnology;
The amount of days to travel to Jupiter would depend on the speed of the spacecraft that is used. There is 545.6 million miles between the distance from Earth to Jupiter.
Jupiter's orbit takes 4331.6 days approx.
16.7 earth days
Jupiter is 390,674,710 miles from Earth. The time it would take to traverse this distance can only be determined if you provide the travel speed.
9hours and 55 minutes
Jupiter and Earth are not always the same distance apart. At their closest, it would take about 1.96 seconds. At their furthest, about 3.22 seconds.
Since Callisto is a moon of Jupiter, it orbits the Sun together with Jupiter - and takes just as long as Jupiter to orbit the Sun.

Earth is 588 million kilometers away from Jupiter. On a space shuttle, it would take about 2 years to reach Jupiter from Earth.
