- Time to Neptune

Assuming a direct flight at the fastest speed yet attained (44,000 MPH I think) it
would take 6.9 years.
That is assuming no time for acceleration or deceleration.
Adding in those factors = really long time.
Neptune is 2.68 billion miles from earth!
If we had a spacecraft capable of accelerating to the 1/2 way point then
decelerating the other half at 1G or maybe 1.5G it probably would take less time,
but I do not have the math skills to calculate it. - Posted by: middle of nowhere Posted on: 08/30/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
