There are many variables to consider in this question, such as the type of rocket, the distance to Mars at the time, the time involved in Lift Off from Earth, and descent to Mars, etc. Mars is orbiting the Sun, as is the Earth, which means distances are always changing. On 'average,' the distance to Mars is about: 156.9 million miles Recently (November 2011) NASA sent a rocket carrying the Curiosity Rover to Mars. It took 254 days from liftoff to landing on Mars. NASA calculated and waited until Mars was closer to Earth, which was significantly closer than the 'average' distance. The distance to Mars at this time was 'only' 127 million miles (29 million miles closer). To reach Mars in 254 days at this distance, not figuring in fine details such as liftoff and descent, the rocket carrying Curiosity had to be traveling at speeds of about 500,000 miles per day, or about 21,000 miles per hour (roughly 347 miles per minute or roughly 6 miles per second).
Mars takes about 687 Earth days to orbit the Sun once.
Depending on the launch of the shuttle, it can take up to 300 days to get to Mars from Earth. It can be reached in as soon as 150 days.

That is solely a question of speed. If Mars was 100 miles away, and you were travelling at 100 miles per hour, it would take 1 hour. NASA plans on about a 9 month trip from the earth for manned flights to mars in the future.

If the rocket from earth looped into the Mars gravitational pull it should be pulled into a orbital path around the planet. But as on earth it would eventually slow down and be attracted to the surface of Mars were it would crash
Google Earth has a flight simulator but no "rocket mode". You can, however, change Earth to Mars, Moon, or a Sky mode to see other planets. The flight simulator still works on Mars and the Moon which is fun to try, but it is disabled in Sky mode.

The planet Mars is only slightly smaller than the planet Earth, and its gravitational field is nearly as strong as that of the Earth, so no, you wouldn't fall off of Mars. You would need a powerful rocket to depart Mars.
The simple answer is that unless the rocket achieves escape velocity, the planet it hits would be Mars. Due to the rotation of the planets, if it did reach escape velocity, it would depend on the position of the planets and the path into space it took.
everybody how are you i think it takes 2 seconds to get to mars if you travel by mum
There is no one in a rocket ship heading to Mars.
An airplane, by definition, flies in the air, it does not fly in outer space where there is no air. So an airplane cannot fly from Earth to Mars. That requires a spaceship. With current technology, a spaceship might reach Mars in about a year. It's a long trip.
If the earth was at its closest point to Mercury it would take over a year for a rocket to reach it. It is about three days to the moon and two years to mars. Mr Google will tell you exactly how long it is to Murcury in a rocket.
No. The only astronomical body outside of the earth that humans have landed on has been the moon, and that hasn't happened now for the past 38 years. In order to reach Mars ... when Mars is the nearest to Earth that it can ever be ... astronauts will have to travel almost 200 times as far as they traveled to reach the moon.
