The Saturn V rockets used in the Apollo program were the fastest manned rockets, achieving speeds of around 25000 miles per hour, to escape earth's gravity, and to make it to â¦the moon and back. 25k miles per hour is nearly 33 times the speed of sound.
New Horizons is currently making 15.73 kilometers per second on its way to a Pluto/Charon flyby in July of 2015, impressive but not the kind of speed that would get us to interstellar probe territory. Interestingly, the fastest spacecraft ever built weren't headed out of the Solar System at all, but in toward the Sun. The Helios probes were West German vehicles launched by NASA, one in 1974, the other in 1976, producing successful missions to study conditions close to the Sun for a period of over ten years.
