The International Space Station cruises at about 17,500 mph. The International Space Station has an average elevation of about 220 miles when orbiting Earth. Every hour and a half, the International Space Station completes an orbit around Earth.
Traveling at approximately 29,000 km/h (18,000 mph) the shuttle orbits Earth every 90 minutes. By using current technology and a spacecraft powered by chemical rocket engines, a trip to Mars could take between six to nine months.
