How long does it takes to get to Duna

[hubergeek]

Hi, Im not sure if this questions has ever been made before, but I haven't read anywhere that anyone is send a space craft to duna without warping.

Has anybody done that and how long will it take to get from Kerbin to Duna in normal time?

[thiosk]

woah, at least a few weeks.

Set up an ejection, place a manuever node at the end of the journey, and you'll see a burn in indicator that will tell you exactly how long it will take.

Something like 2 months. Why on earth would anyone do that

I have a probe going to Duna in real time, it says 28 days.

Is that 28 days in earth days or Kerbing KSP game time?

Going to Duna usually takes between 70 and 100 days, depending on how well you do the transfer burn. 70-80 days is typical if you do it right. If it takes longer, it's because you blew the transfer burn or didn't launch on a good window.

How long it takes depends on when you burn towards it and for how long. Done efficiently, the fastest is around 54 to 58 days. If you could have endless delta-V, you can get there in about 1/10th as long.

"Days" as measured by the game clock is 24 hours, so if you run run real time, the time you see displayed until something happen is how long it will take in the real world.

Thanks for your answers. So, by the time you get to Jool, Version 0.35 would had just come out. LOL

Hmm, are you aware that you can accelerate time in ksp? The farther you are from a planet, the faster you can accelerate. Setting the correct path takes the most time, after that, you can accelerate time, so from kerbin to Jool, it takes just a few minutes.

In the best case, 66 days and 6 hours according to the excellent KSP Launch Window Planner...
