How Long Does It Take to Get to Mars?
It only takes a few minutes to get to space! Rockets hit the boundary of space, approximately 100 km above Earth, in around 8-10 minutes. It takes at most a couple of hours to get to the ISS in orbit. The journey to Mars becomes a much longer one.
A NASA mission is set to launch twin spacecraft on a journey to Mars. The robotic orbiters could lift off atop Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket as soon as Sunday.
