      How Long Does it Take to Get to Venus? - Universe Today
      • This spacecraft was launched on August 8th, 1962 and made a successful flyby on December 14, 1962. So that calculates to 110 days from launch to arrival at Venus.

  1. Jan 13, 2023 · Moving at a speed of 50,000-miles per hour, it would take 32-days to reach Venus, the closest planet, and 2,250-days to reach Neptune, the furthest planet.

  2. Venus orbits the Sun from an average distance of 67 million miles (108 million kilometers), or 0.72 astronomical units. One astronomical unit (abbreviated as AU), is the distance from the Sun to Earth. From this distance, it takes sunlight about six minutes to travel from the Sun to Venus.

  3. How long did it take the spacecraft to get to Venus? The journey lasted 162 days. Venus Express was captured into an orbit around Venus by firing the main engine for 53 minutes.

  4. The original May 1988 launch date would have allowed Magellan to reach Venus in 4 months by traveling less than 180 degrees around the Sun via a Type-I trajectory. Thus, the $551 million mission (see Table 2-1) and the spacecraft that will soon arrive at Venus are much different than NASA had planned a decade earlier, yet the basic scientific ...

  5. Venus's rotation is called retrograde rotation. One day on Venus – the time it takes the planet to complete a full rotation on its axis – is equal to 243 days on Earth. That is actually slower than the time it takes for Venus to complete one orbit around the Sun, which takes 225 Earth days.

  6. So, how long does it take to get to Venus from Earth? The first spacecraft ever launched towards Venus was the Soviet Venera 1 spacecraft. It was launched on February 12, 1961 on course to...

  8. The shortest successful trip any vessel from Earth has taken so far to reach Venus, was 109/110 days. This was achieved with the Mariner 2 mission which conducted the first successful flyby of Venus. It has been estimated that the Russian Venera 1 spacecraft did reach Venus quicker, at 97 days.
