artist Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 ...would it take to drive to the sun in a car?If you keep going at 70mph it would take 150 years - there are no service areas on the way and breakdowns are unlikely.It would take 5 months to reach the moon at that speed and 15 days to travel around the world. But it would take 40 million years to reach the nearest star, and even if you swapped the car for for a speedier aeroplane it would still take 5 million years to get there.From the book Do Cats Have Belly Buttons by Paul HeineyI'm definately not going to make it!

catgate Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 If you delay your departure until mid winter the sun will be well below the equator and it will then be downhill all the way. Saving you fuel and giving you a faster speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
