There is a character, this character is not affected by gravity while flying and goes to the orbiting space station for minutes. My main question is how do we find the speed this character?
 
I think gravity hardly affects you once you reach escape velocity, so ee just gotta find the distance between the space station and the ground then divide it by the timeframe.
 
Usually escape velocities are the minimum, but if there's a known distance, you can divide that by the timeframe. Low Orbiting Space Stations are typically 160 km above the Earth's surface.
