A satellite couldn't go to Jupiter since satellites are objects,natural or manmade, that are in orbit around other celestial objects such as planets and stars. If you mean how much fuel would a spacecraft/spaceship need to go to Jupiter, that would depend on the mass of the spacecraft and the acceleration.

For example, if you pushed your spaceship to fifty thousand miles per hour, it would continue at that speed without any more fuel being used because space is a nearly total vacuum and offers almost no resistance to an object passing through it. If you wanted to keep speeding up on the way, it would take a lot of fuel.

How much fuel will be needed in a rocket?

How much fuel will be needed in a rocket will depend on the size of the rocket and where it is going. A rocket that will be traveling into space burns a lot of fuel and will need enough to keep it in orbit for teh desired time.


How much rocket fuel do you need to get into space?

It depends on the weight of the rocket and payload. The Saturn 5 that carried the Apollo moon missions into space carried 5.5 million pounds (2.5 million kilograms) of fuel. Most of the fuel is used to lift the fuel.


How much rocket fuel is needed to send a rocket into space?

It depends upon the weight of the total vehicle and the payload combined (including the fuel, which needs to be carried upward too). For more information, see the link below the ads. The Saturn V can carry 385.6 tonnes of propellant according to pg 244 in "The Rocket: The History and Development of Rocket & Missile Technology"


How much oil does NASA use for a single space shuttle launch?

I don"t know about the space shuttles but the fuel consumption of the Saturn V"s used in the manned Moon shots was humungous- bear in mind this is various types of rocket fuel, not anything you would find at a service station, but in the initial stage burns the Saturn V consumed- l6 tons of rocket fuel a second! that"s an average fully loaded Truck of the Mack type- 32,000 lbs, in one second!


What space shuttle will you use to get to Saturn?

The space shuttle is not capable of leaving low earth orbit, a rocket like what the Apollo missions used (although much bigger) would be required.

Where is the solid fuel rocket on a rocket?

At the very bottom is the nozzle, after that is the fuel. Depending on how big the rocket is and how much fuel it needs determines the size of the chamber


How much did the Saturn v rocket weigh?

The weight of a Saturn V rocket just before launch is approximately 3 039 000 Kg.

How much gasoline is 5625000 pounds of rocket fuel?

How much energy is in one gallon of gas, compare this to quantity of energy in one gallon of rocket fuel, voila, your answer!!!


With a oxidizer can methane gas be a space rocket propellant?

Absolutely. Various rocket fuels are rated in "Specific Impulse", which is how much kick you get for how much fuel mass (or weight). This strongly influences the choice of fuels. Hydrogen and Oxygen is VERY high. Methane and Oxygen....not so much.
