This varies a lot as Mars and our Earth-moon system are are two different orbits. At the most extreme, Mars would would be on the other side of the solar system, on the other side of the sun from Earth. Here the distance of Mars from earth would be around 380 million km. At its closest point, Mars may be only as far as 55.8 million km from the Earth-moon system.

The moon is comparatively close to the Earth at 0.4 million km or 400,000km and keeps with the earth on its orbit around the sun, so we may as well talk about the Earth-moon system as a whole in this context.

The distance is about 555,000,000 km, or 3.7 Astronomical Units (AU).

One AU is equivalent to the distance from Earth to the Sun.

This depends on where they are in their respective orbits.

862.4 million miles.

A different point of view:

The distance varies as the planets move in their orbits around the Sun.

So the answer is constantly changing.

How many miles are in between Mars and Saturn in miles?

Since Mars and Saturn both orbit the Sun, the distance between them is constantly changing as both planets move in their orbits.


What is the closest planet to Jupiter and how far is it?

The distance between the planets depends on their location relative to each other. Sometimes Mars, Sometimes Saturn. The least distance between Jupiter and Saturn is 3.5 AU and The least distance between Jupiter and Mars is 6.7 AU. Hence, Saturn's orbit is slightly closer than Mars' orbit. 1 AU is the distance between the Earth and the Sun. 1 Astronomical Unit = 149 598 000 kilometers


What is next to Jupiter?

Jupiter is located between Mars and Saturn.


What the second planet?

venus (in terms of distance from the sun). In terms of distance from the earth, it is Mars In terms of size, it is Saturn.


What is the closest planet to Jupiter?

Mars is potentially the closest planet at a minimum distance of 3.68 AU. That varies. Mars would typically be the closest planet, but earth would be closest when earth and Jupiter are on the same side of the sun and Mars is on the opposite side. At 10 AU, Saturn would almost always be further from Jupiter than Mercury or Venus. When Mars and Jupiter are on opposite sides of the sun, the distance between them is eight AU, whereas the distance between Jupiter and Saturn when they are lined up on the same side of the sun is 5 AU. That means when even earth (1 AU) is on the opposite side from Jupiter and Saturn (Jupiter and Saturn are in daylight), Saturn would be slightly closer. Most of the time, however, Mars would be the closest planet to Jupiter.
