03. How many years would it take to get to Venus and back? (A K2S Question)

The Galileo probe took just under four months to get to Venus from Earth. The Cassini Probe took just over six months to arrive at Venus before heading out to Saturn. Of course, if you had more fuel, more power, and everything was positioned just right, you could get there more quickly.
