The space shuttle travels at about 28,000 km per hour. using that information, estimate how many hours it will take the shuttle to reach saturn from earth. show your work. convert your answer into scientific notation if necessary.

It depends what is the position of earth and saturn. Distance from earth to saturn varies depending on whether earth is between sun and saturn or sun is between earth and saturn. Obviously, the shortest distance will be if earth is between sun and saturn. we will take that the distance between earth and saturn is:

s = 1 275 000 000 km
The time required to travel that distance is:
t = s/v = 45535 hours or 1897.3 days
