What is the worlds fastest space vehicle and how fast is it?

Answer 1

NASA launched two spacecraft called Helios to study the Sun during the 1970s. Both of these probes attained maximum speeds of around 150,000 mph (250,000 km/h) as they flew by on their closest approach to the Sun.isright yes ked is right with the answer buzzinggggggggggggggg

Answer 2

The fastest space vehicle is the Parker Solar Probe, which travels at speeds of up to 430,000 miles per hour (700,000 kilometers per hour) as it orbits the Sun. This incredible speed is necessary for the probe to withstand the extreme conditions near the Sun.

Answer 3

The Helios deep space probes were launched in the mid 1970s by the Federal Republic of Germany and NASA, using US Air Force launch vehicles. There were two in the series, Helios I and Helios II. They were launched into heliocentric orbit to study solar processes. They set a speed record for the fastest man-made objects ever at 252,792 km/h (70.2 km/s).

Answer 4

The Saturn V rockets used in the Apollo program were the fastest manned rockets, achieving speeds of around 25000 miles per hour, to escape earth's gravity, and to make it to the moon and back. 25k miles per hour is nearly 33 times the speed of sound.

Answer 5

The highest speed ever reached by an unmanned, man-made spacecraft was 252,792 km/h (157,078 mph) by the solar probes Helios I and Helios II.

The highest speed reached by a manned spacecraft was 39,896 km/h (24,790 mph) by Apollo 10 on May 26, 1969.

Answer 6

The amonatuser was the fastest spaceship but never came back to earth it goes 547 000 miles per hour

Answer 7

New Horizons was the fastest rocket to date.

Answer 8

the fastest space craft presently existing is the space shuttle but presently a scientist in Houston Texas is now creating a engine that could propel a shuttle at 123,000 miles per hour

Answer 9

Helios 2 is traveling at 150,000mph kilometers per hour.
