But where is this vehicle? The current location is 2,592,414 miles (4,172,087 km, 0.028 AU) from Earth, moving away from Earth at a speed of 7,558 miles/hour (12,164 km/hour, 3.38 km/s).

The car is 135,490,117 miles (218,050,274 km, 1.458 AU) from Mars, moving toward the planet at a speed of 43,204 miles/hour (69,531 km/hour, 19.31 km/s).

The car is 92,329,062 miles (148,589,267 km, 0.993 AU) from the Sun, moving away from the star at a speed of 2,902 miles/hour (4,670 km/hour, 1.30 km/s).

The car exceeded its 36,000 mile warranty 709.5 times while driving around the Sun, (25,543,721 miles, 41,108,646 km, 0.27 AU) moving at a speed of 71,226 miles/hour (114,626 km/hour, 31.84 km/s). It has achieved a fuel economy of 202.7 miles per gallon (86.2 km/liter, 1.16024 liters/100 km), assuming 126,000 gallons of fuel.

Assuming the battery still works, Starman has listened to Space Oddity 3,836 times since launch.
