That would depend on what time of year you left the Earth. But if you knew the distance between the two planets at their closest. Then all you have to do is divide that distance by 186,000 and this would give you how many seconds away Jupiter was from the Earth. The moon is 250,000 miles away that's 250,000/186,000 = 1.344 seconds away.

How long would it take to get to Jupiter from mars travelling at the speed of light?

2 minutes


How fast does light travel to Jupiter?

Light travels at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second. The time it takes for light to travel to Jupiter depends on the distance between Earth and Jupiter, which varies as they orbit the sun. On average, light takes about 33 minutes to travel from Earth to Jupiter when they are at their closest approach.


How quickly can you get to Jupiter?

If Jupiter was directly behind earth and you could travel at the speed of light you could get there in 35 minutes that's as quick as the laws of physics would allow you to get there.


How fast can you get to Jupiter at the speed of light?

Unfortunately you can't get an exact answer because the distance keeps changing. It would take from about 35 minutes up to about 55 minutes.


How many lightyears are you away from Jupiter?

Well the Moon is 1 light second away from earth ( meaning if you were moving at the speed of light you would reach and pass the moon in 1 second ) and the Sun is about 8 light minutes away from us. Jupiter is maybe 4 light minutes?


How many light minutes is it from Jupiter to Earth?

That depends on how far apart Jupiter and earth are at the time.When both are on the same side of the sun, the closest the two planets can befrom each other is about 391 million miles. When on opposite sides of the sun,the farthest apart is about 577 million miles.The corresponding transit-times at light speed are between 35 minutes and 51.6 minutes.


The distance from the sun to Jupiter is 778000000000 miles so How long does it take for light from the sun to reach Jupiter?

You seem have too many zeros. Jupiter is 778 million Kilometers (778,000,000), NOT miles from the Sun. The number of miles is about 484 million (484,000,000). Light will take just over 40 minutes to reach Jupiter. The speed of light is abut 186,000 miles per second (300,000 kilometers per second)


How long does it take to get from Jupiter to callisto?

It would take about 100 minutes for a spacecraft traveling at the speed of light (186,282 miles per second) to travel from Jupiter to Callisto, which is one of Jupiter's moons. However, current spacecraft travel at much slower speeds due to technical limitations, so it would take longer to cover the distance.


What is the travel time to get from Earth to Jupiter in a rocket?

As earth revolves around the sun at a much faster speed than Jupiter does, the distance is changing a lot from year to year, even every minute. If say starting from the sun, even at the speed of light, it would take approx 43 minutes to get to Jupiter. If the rocket managed an approximate of 1/100 of the speed of light, then the trip would take roughly 3 days or approx 72 hours. With this speed, from earth, when earth is aligned with Jupiter on the right side of the sun, the trip would roughly be done in 63 hours. (Approx 2 days and 15 hours). Rockets today can not achieve this speed, but who knows what future holds for us.


How long would it take to travel by light speed to get to the sun?

8 minutes


How fast could you get to the sun at light-speed?

If you traveled at the speed of light (a current impossibility), you would travel from Earth to the Sun in an average of 8 minutes. Or would you? I suspect that you would burn up well before the 8 minutes were up.


If the sun suddenly ceased to shine how long would it take Jupiter to become dark?

If the sun suddenly stopped shining, it would take about 43 minutes for Jupiter to become dark, as that is how long it takes for sunlight to reach Jupiter. Jupiter's moons would also become dark since they rely on the sun's light for illumination.
