   How long does it take to land on Mars?

   • Landing on Mars is always difficult, and NASA prioritizes communications during this critical event. Perseverance requires 203 days to travel about 293 million miles (471 million kilometers) from Earth to Mars. This is the cruise phase of the mission. The final 45 days of the cruise phase make up the approach subphase.

   How fast does a spacecraft fly on Mars?

   • The eight throttleable retrorockets on the descent stage, called Mars landing engines, not only help the spacecraft fly to a safe landing site, but also help slow the spacecraft. When the powered descent phase begins, the spacecraft is traveling at about 190 mph (306 kph) 6,900 feet (2,100 meters) above the ground.
