Gaseous Fission Ship (GFS)
MPH 340,909
When Mars is in opposition, the shortest distance of 62
million to 36 million miles, GFS travel time to Mars is 4 to 8 Days. It takes as long as 30 days when Mars is in aphelion
(the longest distance). The GFS would take 17 days to get to Mars covering its
average distance of 139,808,518 miles.
ORION SPACECRAFT
MPH 33,480,000
When Mars is in opposition travel time for Orion is less
than two hours. When Mars is in aphelion Orion travel time is under 8 hours. It
would take Orion 4 hours and 10 minutes to get to Mars covering the average
distance.
These are the fastest times for these craft. Manned versions will have to safely accelerate in order to avoid killing the crew. Automated or unmanned versions of these vehicles could be used to rapidly resupply colonies in the solar system.
