This question is complicated by two factors.

For one, Saturn is not at a fixed distance from Earth, so the answer would be a range rather than a specific amount of time.

But more importantly, there's no fixed speed of sound the way there is for light. The speed of sound is determined by the density of the substrate which the wave is traveling through, say water or air. Even on Earth, the speed of sound through air will vary by temperature and altitude. Since there's nothing in space for the waves to propagate through, sound simply doesn't travel between Earth and Saturn; it has no speed.

For the sake of providing an answer, though, let's pretend that space is actually air of the density of that at sea level on Earth. And that Saturn and Earth are at their closest, and stay still. If this were the case, it would take something like:

111 years

273 days

14 hours

How long would it take to travel to Saturn from earth at the speed of light?

Working with very, very round numbers . . .-- The Earth's average distance from the sun is 1 AU.-- Saturn's average distance from the sun is 9 AU.-- The closest together that Earth and Saturn can ever be is 8 AU = 66.5 minutes at light speed.-- The farthest apart that Earth and Saturn can ever be is 10 AU = 83.2 minutes at light speed.

What time does it take saturn to orbit the sun?

It takes Saturn approximately 29.5 Earth years to orbit the Sun. This long orbit period is due to its distance from the Sun and slower orbital speed compared to Earth.


How long does it take a radio wave to travel to Saturn from earth?

Using the formula speed = distance/time and that Saturn from earth is 821,190,000 miles and the speed of light 186,000miles per second. Then rearrange the formula for time we find the answer is 4415 seconds or 73.58 minutes or 1.226 hours


How long does it take from earth to Saturn in hours?

The time it takes to travel from Earth to Saturn depends on the spacecraft and its speed. For example, the Cassini space probe took about 6.7 years to travel from Earth to Saturn. At its fastest speed, a spacecraft could potentially make the journey in about 2-3 years.


Why is the time on earth different from Saturn?

The short answer is "relativity." The longer answer is "what the heck is this question even supposed to mean?" because if you don't understand the short answer, I don't know what "the time on Earth is different from Saturn" could possibly be intended to refer to. The smart-aleck literal answer is "the time on Earth is a time, and Saturn is a planet."


How long does it take you to get to Saturn?

It would take a spacecraft about 5-7 years to reach Saturn, depending on its speed and trajectory. The distance between Earth and Saturn varies as they orbit the Sun, with an average distance of about 1.2 billion kilometers.


How long would it take to get to Saturn by jet?

It's not possible to travel to Saturn by jet as it is a gas giant planet located millions of miles away from Earth. If a jet could travel at the speed of sound (767 mph), it would take over 22 years to reach Saturn.


How long for Saturn to circle the earth?

Saturn does not circle the earth. It orbits the sun. Copernicus demonstrated this mathematically in the 17th century. It takes about 29 earth years for Saturn to complete one orbit of the sun.
