What do Kryptonians do while space traveling in their ship while traveling to or from Earth? I mean it is a 5 year trip.

I assume they stay in a sleep-like state during the trip. But as was shown in the episode where Clark first opened his ship, we could see that there was a message scrolling along the innards of it.
I'd actually be surprised if Jor-El had the message scrolling inside during Clark's entire trip, as he wouldn't have understood the message anyway. I'm sure the power source would be better used on propulsion as well. So maybe it was implanted inside the ship after he landed; sent from the cave or FoS.
I know this doesn't really answer the question, but it's definately sheding some light on it at least.

Actually its only a 2.5 year trip, 2 and a half there 2 and a half back, five year round trip.
Well it depends on how you get there. When Clark arrived he had been sleeping, but Jor-el and Lara's voices were reading to him about Galaxy's, Stars, what happened, why they are sending him to earth, and Earth's complete history. That's why Clark is so interested in Astronomy, his parents' voice was telling him about it all the way to his destination in Smallville.
but others like Zod, who arrived in the Phantom Zone were busy starring out their observation window...

I think it greatly depends on the space craft as to "what they do" on their trip aswell as how long it takes them to make the journey...
Clark was put into a state of hybernation while in his mini ship... that according to the pilot and memoria took Clark 3-4 years to go from Krypton to Earth
The diciples of Zod however where braken down and stored on a kryptonian hard drive, untill they arrived, to which they rematerialized out side the ship no older and expireancing no passage of time since they've been zapped into the ships hard drive...

They have no idea how old Clark actually was when they found him. They said he was ABOUT three. They really only guessed. 2.5 is fairly close to 3 years

well that is kind of what happens. But WHile Clark was sleeping, his parents voices were around him telling him of Krypton's history and then about the Galexy's it basically just repeated the whole time. That is why clark is so interested in Astronomy

That is why clark is so interested in Astronomy I would argue that since in the movie that is what happend and very few parallels run between the movie Smallville untill season 5... Even then it's only the physical atributes of the FoS as well as the function and appearance of the Phantom Zone... ( I'm going to be so psyched if clark is broken out in a "atomic explossion" as Zod, Ursa and Nan was in Superman 2... )

(i am thinking that it is more going to be an observation window bust. I would have though in Mortal that that explosion was going to open the PZ) Im not sure you fully understand what i am saying though. I wasn't even talking about the FoS. I was talking about the spaceship ride. Why do you think that the message translated in Rosetta was going over and over in the spaceship. They were telling Clark who he was and about krypton's history as well as the astronomical history of the galaxy. That is why Clark is in love with astronomy. Clark was obsessed with his telescope and such even before Pilot and before he found out about who he really was and where he came from.

The telescope was always aimed at Lana's house when she was living with her Aunt Nell (I probubly misspelled her name)
The notion that" Jor-el and Lara's voices were reading to him about Galaxy's, Stars, what happened, why they are sending him to earth, and Earth's complete history." (that's me quoteing you by the by) was taken from the first Superman movie. As there is no suporting evidance that that ever occured in Smallville.
I mean He took his being from another planet as a joke when Jon' told him about it in the pilot until he realised Jon' wasn't kidding. He didn't know anything about where he was from untill he put the key in the cave wall. He thought his came from a race of 'monsters' when he read the message in his ship and he didn't know his mothers name nore the fact that his parents had a more humane side untill memoria (even though Lara was his first word, no one knew what it ment).
If he had known about being sent to Earth to protect it from ZOD and wherehe was from as well as his history adn what brought about the extinction of his people... why didn't he know it untill later on?

actually no i didn't take that from the movie. i took that from Action COmics #867. he took it as a joke until he realized it was true. The telescope was NOT always pointed at lana's house because in more then one episode they start a scene by him looking up at the stars through the telescope view. He still knew about Krypton blowing up. Swann told him about that in Rosetta. Jor-el and Lara still sent him to Earth for his own protection AS WELL as saving it from Zod. The whole Zod thing didn't even admerge until last season. They had other reasons too.

The whole Zod thing didn't even admerge until last season. They had other reasons too. Yeah, Dr Swann did tell Clark Krypton blew up... every thing he's learned about krypton or about anything reguarding started since he put the key in the wall... If his parents had told him about it in the ship he would have already known about everything reguarding and the fact he's an alien as well as his culter he's from wouldn't seem so, well alien to him... wink so atleast we can agree that the idea of Clarks parents reading to in the space craft in Smallville wasn't taken from Smallville it's self... razz it wasn't made obveouse to us viewers , but if you go back to season two, Jor-El has been trying to "prepare" Clark to face Zod, but Clark always rebelled as well as the paralells between what happend to Dr. Walden and Lionel... except in Dr. Waldens case he mistaken Clark for Zod...

Yes but if you remember, Clark didn't remember where he came from (obviously) and he had no reasonable explanation as to why he found comfort looking in the sky. Well yeah, but we didn't necessarily know that he was preparing him for Zod, well i got the whole Waldon's mistake thing. But Clark always rebelled because he thought that Zod was Jor-el. Clark knew very little about his heritage. But common, how much do you remember from when you were born to when you were about 3? Do you not remember though when Clark puts the key into the ship and it opens up and the message is being Scralled inside the ship. or in Memoria season 3 when they show Clark's earliest memory of being set into the ship by his parents? you see the writing again there.

He didn't know of Zod when he started to rebel because he didn't give Jor-El a chance to explain why he was suposed to leave the farm and what Clarks 'destiny' was (end of season 2). It wasn't untill season 3 when his hand was forced, so to say, that he had to turn Clark into Kal-El inorder to save the planet from Zods evil... O.o then there was the 'Starblade' (I think it was called, I'm probubly wrong) that the native americans said Clark would use to kill his enemy one day... and Jor-El asked Clark to use a Dagger from the FoS to kill Zod's physical body (though they don't make them like they used to atleast)... -is slightly confused- what are we talking about again Chloe?
