How fast do rockets go mph?

Answer 1

Rockets can travel at varying speeds depending on their design and mission. For example, during launch, a typical rocket can reach speeds of about 17,500 mph (28,000 km/h) to achieve low Earth orbit. Spacecraft like the Parker Solar Probe have reached speeds of over 430,000 mph (700,000 km/h) as it approaches the Sun. Overall, rocket speeds can range widely, but they are generally among the fastest vehicles ever built.
