At that speed you would reach the moon in about 4 hours, a journey to mars would last at least a 1000 times longer, so not much would visible change.

Even at nearly the speed of light, a jouney through the solar sytem alone would take hours.

It would take 3-4 hours, say, to reach Neptune at near light speed - but that would be in time measured on earth. From the perspective of someone actually on the rocket the journey would be near instant due to time dilation effects.
