Travel time anomaly in the communicatin of spatial instruments installed in solar planets and Earth are investigated in a model of gravity impact on radio signal propagation. Resulting travel times anomaly shows variations less than 10^-3 seconds to and from Venus and Mars while Sun provides anomaly travel times of about -2 × 10^-2 sec as backward signal needs more times than emitted signal from Earth. In the current explorations on Mars, the travel time anomaly may reach 1.8 × 10^-4 sec as orbital Mars position pass through its minimum distance with respect to Earth. Implications of the difference between one and two-way travel times may be related to redshift/blueshift while travel time of received signal is less or greater than emitted signal.
