How fast does the Mars rovers go?

Answer 1

The orbital speed of Mars varies greatly due to the planet's highly eccentric orbit. As Mars gets closer to the Sun, it accelerates in speed, due to being pulled more by the Sun's gravity, but as it gets farther away from the Sun, it slows down a bit because it is too far to be affected by the Sun's gravity as much as it was affected while it was closer to the Sun on the course of its orbit.

In conclusion, the fastest orbital speed Mars can accelerate to as it orbits is 59,292 mph or 16.47 mi/s (95,400 km/hr or 26.50 km/s), and the slowest it can get during the course of its orbit is 49,145 mph or 13.65 mi/s (79,092 km/hr or 21.97 km/s). Mars's average orbital speed, which is the average of its minimum and maximum speed, is equal to 53,977 mph or 14.99 mi/s (86,868 km/hr or 24.13 km/s).

Answer 2

Under ideal conditions the Spirit and OpportunityRovers are capable of moving at about 200 meters per hour; however conditions on mars are far from ideal so it usually averages about 40 metres per hour.
At the present time the Spirit Rover has become stuck and cannot move; the Opportunity rover is still mobile.

Answer 3

The Mars rovers move at a speed of around 0.03 miles per hour (0.05 kilometers per hour) on average. This slow pace allows the rovers to carefully navigate the rocky terrain and send data back to Earth in real-time.

Answer 4

The Mar's Rover moves very slowly because the ground forces need it to search all areas carefully.
5 miles per hr

Answer 5

They have a top speed of 5 cm per second. That's 0.18 kilometres per hour. Average speed is about 1 centimetre per second or 0.036 kph.

Answer 6

What I could find said up to 90m (300 ft) per hour.

Answer 7

50 mm

Answer 8

0.18
