The International Space Station (ISS) orbits Earth approximately every 90 minutes, traveling at a speed of about 28,000 kilometers per hour. This means the time it takes for the ISS to go from one point in the sky to directly overhead will vary depending on your location and the station's position at that moment.
The space shuttle took about 8.5 minutes to reach the International Space Station after launch. The shuttle travelled at speeds of around 17,500 miles per hour to reach the ISS, which is in low Earth orbit.
The mode of transportation is currently by Soyuz rocket or Space Shuttle. The time from lift off until docking takes about 2 days. If one wants to go to the ISS, they either need to be an astronaut/cosmonaut or have about $30 million dollars to pay for the 6 months of training and travel on a Soyuz rocket for about 10 days of time on the ISS.
The shuttle does not immediately go to the ISS, but 'parks' in earth orbit for a time during which the shuttle is checked for damage and equipment is also tested and organized. They gradually catch up with the ISS in a complex process of orbital mechanics. The docking occurs approximately two days after launch.
It would equal 24 hours on your time modulator. later earthling
Astronaut Tracy Caldwell Dyson answered this question which was asked of her by students of the Texas School for the Deaf. She explained that it only takes 8 minutes to get into space from the time of launch, but that it takes 3 days to get to the ISS.

Like any other trip, that will depend on where you start out. If you're coming from the sun, it'll take you roughly 81/3 minutes. From anywhere on Earth, you can be there in 0.07 second or less, if you can handle the turns.
The International Space Station (ISS) has a mass of approximately 420,000 kilograms. Weight is a force that depends on gravity, so the weight of the ISS would vary depending on its location in space.
Because the space station is in such a bad orbit for US spacecraft to launch to, it takes about 2 days in space for the shuttle to rendevous with the space station. The space station was built by the US & Russians, spacecraft from both countries had to be able to send supplies up on a regular basis, so the orbit of the ISS is difficult for the shuttle to reach.
It iss always held in June and July.
