The space shuttle is incapable of leaving Earth orbit, so it could never travel to another planet. The time that it takes to travel around the Solar System depends on the speed that you are traveling. Our current level of technology is barely capable of sending a payload to Neptune, and it would take years to arrive.

How long did it take the space shuttle to get to Neptune?

There have been no space shuttle landings on Neptune. It would be impossible to land on Neptune for two reasons: 1 - Neptune is a gas giant 2 - Neptune is freezing cold, electronic equipment would freeze and malfunction


How long does it take the space shuttle to reach the space station?

The space shuttle took about 8-10 minutes to reach orbit. It would then take around 6 hours for the space shuttle to catch up with the space station for docking.

Was there any space flights to Neptune?

No, as of now, there have been no manned or unmanned space flights to Neptune. The distance, challenges of sending a mission to such a distant planet, and technological limitations make it currently not feasible to send a spacecraft to Neptune.

How long does it take the space shuttle to go from California to Florida?

As the space shuttle is a space vehicle, a land to land movement would incur the use of the crawler-transporters. The distance between Kennedy Space Centre to Los Angeles is about 2,569 miles. At a maximum speed of 1 mph it would take 2,569 hours or about 3.5 months.


How would space people travel?

In space, they don't. If they are in a space shuttle, however, they would move themselves using handlebars attached to the shuttle designed specifically for propelling themselves.


How long would it take to get to Neptune from Mars in a space shuttle?

This is problematic as neither planet is stationary and both revolve around the Sun at different speeds. Additionally, one would have to take in the traveling speed of the craft, its ability to maintain that speed, its payload of fuel, whether it is intended to be a one way trip, and a myriad of other variables.


How long would it take for a space shuttle to reach space?

It could not, the shuttle cannot leave low earth orbit


What would 4000 megawatt hours power?

My home for ~700 years. The entire USA for ~8 hours. Here's an interesting comparison: About 4,250 space shuttle launches (if we could launch the space shuttle on electricity, and keep all other factors the same). http://scienceblogs.com/builtonfacts/2008/10/space_shuttle_electric_boogalo.php
