In 1974, the Mariner 10 probe took 147 days to reach Mercury. Messenger, in 2011, took almost 7 years to make the journey... just like the BepiColombo probe, launched in 2018, which is set to arrive by the end of 2025.
Now, you might wonder, why does it take so long to reach a planet that is, on average, only 92 million kilometers away from Earth? This question becomes even more pressing when you consider that the Juno probe reached Jupiter, which is 600 million kilometers away, in just 5 years!

What About Venus? Going from point A to point B on Earth's surface is easy.
Despite whatever obstacles there may be, you just need to follow a direction, and sooner or later, you'll get there. Calculating the travel duration becomes pretty straightforward by simply dividing the distance by the average speed...
It might seem even easier in space, where there are no obstacles, rivers to cross, or mountains to navigate... you just go straight and there you go!
