Impluse Speed spelled out

How long does it take to get there when traveling at...


Speed Times the speed of light Planet to Planet's Moon Inner Planet to Inner Planet Inner Planet to Outer Planet Far Orbit to System's Star Across Solar System
One Quarter Impulse 1/16 21.6 seconds 1.3-2 hours 4-16 hours 20 hours 44 hours
Half Impulse 1/8 10.8 seconds 40-60 minutes 2-8 hours 10 hours 22 hours
Three Quarters Impulse 3/16 7.2 seconds 26.7-40 minutes 1.3-5.3 hours 6.7 hours 14.7 hours
Full Impulse 1/4 5.4 seconds 20-30 minutes 1-4 hours 5 hours 11 hours


Notes:

Numbers are for an average, Sol-like star system.

Although most ships can exceed .25c (one quarter the speed of light) during combat or in emergency situations, .25c remains the Starfleet standard for "Full Impulse." Beyond this speed it is more efficient to travel at warp speeds.

Once within a star system ships usually travel at Impulse speeds as it is extremely difficult to navigate through without hitting the planets, moons, or star of a system while at warp speeds.
