(601,000,000 miles) / (17,500 mile/hour) = 34,342.9 hours = approx. 3.9 years .
I don't know what planet you have in mind, but remember that spacecraft
never travel a straight line. They're placed into a solar orbit, with just the
right eccentricity and orientation so that eventually, the spacecraft and the
destination planet will arrive at the same place at the same time.
The whole thing is really tricky, and the total distance traveled is always
much much more than the straight distance between the start- and end-points.
It would take approximately 65 years to travel at the speed of light from Earth to Aldebaran, which is about 65 light-years away. However, currently, we do not have the technology to travel at the speed of light.
About 14 hours at 17,000 mph
8 minutes, as that is the time it takes for the light from the sun to travel to the earth.
Light travels at approximately 186,282 miles per second. The circumference of the Earth is about 24,901 miles. Therefore, it would take light approximately 0.133 seconds to travel all the way around the Earth.
At a typical 18.6 miles per second the spacecraft travels at 1/10,000 of the speed of light, therefore it would take 43,000 years.
it is estimated to be 2.5x1013 miles away. 2.5x1013/17000 is 1470588235.3 hours.

Traveling 39 light years would take 39 years at the speed of light.
Traveling 40 light years would take 40 years at the speed of light.
Sunlight takes 8.4 minutes to travel 93 million miles to Earth. It would take us that long to reach the Sun at light speed.
It would take approximately 65 years to travel at the speed of light from Earth to Aldebaran, which is about 65 light-years away. However, currently, we do not have the technology to travel at the speed of light.

Like any distance, it depends on how fast you are going. At the speed of light it would take 4,000 years to travel that distance.
It takes about 1.28 seconds for light to travel from the moon to Earth. So if the moon were to travel at the speed of light, it would complete an orbit around the Earth in approximately 1.28 seconds.
