It depends on the mass of the starship in question.
Light is energy. Light is made of massless particles called photons that travel at the speed of light. Photons at a given frequency carry energy equal to the Planck constant times the photon's frequency.
A spaceship traveling from the moon to Earth at a typical speed of about 2.38 km/s would take approximately 3 days to cover the distance of about 384,400 km. The actual time may vary depending on the specific trajectory and speed of the spaceship.
The duration of a trip from Earth to Mars by spaceship depends on the speed of the spacecraft, the alignment of the two planets, and the trajectory chosen. On average, it takes about 7-9 months for a spacecraft to travel from Earth to Mars.
Yes. Gamma Rays are photons (like visible light, just at another part of the electromagnetic spectrum). They travel with constant velocity at the speed of light (only in a vacuum). Although the original speed of the gamma ray varies.
Well first of all, you don't. No object that has any mass when it's sitting still will ever travel at light speed. To answer your question in general: If you're sitting inside a spaceship, sipping a cup of coffee and surfing the web, and you decide to take a break from your back-breaking labor and step outside for a few minutes, then the moment you're outside, you continue traveling at the same speed and in the same direction that the ship was when you let go of it. If the ship is traveling with constant velocity ... constant speed in a straight line ... then you seem to float motionless next to it, because your speed and direction are exactly the same as the spaceship's. If the ship is accelerating, then you keep the speed and direction that you and it had when you let go, and the ship goes on its own merry way, leaving you behind, beside, or ahead.
If I went to travel in a spaceship, I would take a lot of pictures.

A... spaceship...? Why do you ask?
By spaceship
A spaceship.
A spaceship.
Usually the spaceship will turn off its engines soon after takeoff; therefore, it will travel precisely at the "speed of its orbit", most of the trip.
No, the speed of light in a vacuum is constant for all photons regardless of their energy. Higher energy photons have a higher frequency and shorter wavelength, but they still travel at the speed of light.

The density on Earth is higher than in a spaceship, as the spaceship is typically designed to be lightweight. On Earth, the atmosphere and gravitational force contribute to a denser environment, whereas a spaceship is constructed to be less dense for efficient travel in space.
