Aphelion 152,098,232 km
Perihelion 147,098,290 km
The largest distance between Earth and Mercury is when they are at opposite ends of the Sun. So the farthest they can be is 0.38+1 = 1.38 AU.
Slightly more or less than 92 million miles.
The solstices are determined by the distance the Earth is from the sun in its orbit. Winter is when the sun is farthest away relative to the Earth's tilt. Summer occurs when the opposite is true.
do you mean when the Earth is farthest away from the Sun? If so, then this occurs at an event called 'aphelion,' when a body is the farthest from its star in its orbit. Recently this has been and will be happening on July 4th. (Note--distance from the Sun has nothing to do with seasons. That is because of our axial tilt.)

Earth is at its maximum distance from the sun in July. In 2012, it was farthest from the sun on July 4th or 5th.
The largest distance between Earth and Mercury is when they are at opposite ends of the Sun. So the farthest they can be is 0.38+1 = 1.38 AU.
Neptune is the remotest of the eight planets, and its distance is 30 astronomical units, which means its distance from the Sun is 30 times the Earth's distance from the Sun.
The distance between the Sun and the Moon is not related to the temperature on Earth.
Since the moon orbits Earth, it is always about the same distance from the sun as Earth is. At its farthest point (aphelion), Earth is about 94 million miles from the sun. The moon's orbit around Earth can add about 250,000 miles to that if it reaches its farthest point from Earth (apogee) during the full moon phase. This is a difference about 0.27% the Earth's distance tot he sun.
1 This sentence doesn't make any sense it should be when is the earth the furthest distance from the sun 2 you spelt furthest wrong
The closest distance from the earth to the sun is about 147 kilometers. This figure changes all the time and at its farthest, the sun is about 152 kilometers away.
The Earth reaches its aphelion (farthest distance from the Sun) about July 4 each year, at which point the Earth is 152,097,701 km away from the Sun.
Slightly more or less than 92 million miles.
