I am just wondering. I saw a screenshot with someone witha mission 10,000m away. How long would that exactly take to travel?
Thanks in advance,

well the NASA space shuttles trave at 7800 meters a second while in space, id assume even at a low speed cruise a starwars ship would hopefully be faster then a chemical rocket powered low orbit space craft. so id guess you would close 10,000m pretty quick in your X-Wing.

It does go fast but it depends on your engine.
takes me about 4-5min with booster use.

Yeah, except that is nasa and this is a game.
The starter ships are pretty slow, a few minutes to go 10km... The higher end ships with good engines can get moving pretty quick though. One of the x-wings that i had with a level 9 engine and level 10 booster was doing over 1000m/s when it was boosting.
