What are the distance the solar system is measured by?
Interplanetary distances are measured in either kilometers or in miles. For the distant planets, some measures are measured in Astronomical Units, where one AU is the distance between the Sun and the Earth. So, 1 AU = 93,000,000 miles.
What is AUfrom the sun mean?
"AU" stands for "Astronomical Unit". It's a unit of distance often usedto describe distances within our solar system.One AU is simply the Earth's average distance from the sun during 1 year.AU stands for the distance from the sun to the earth, 150 Giga meters.AU stands for astronomical unit - which is basically the distance from the Sun to EArth. AU from the Sun means that a distance is measured from the Sun, to some other object, and that the distance is expressed in AU.
How far is the earths moon from mercury?
Varying from the the distance from the Earth to the Moon + the distance from the sun to the earth + the distance from mercury to the sun, to the distance from the earth to the sun - the distance from mercury to the sun - the distance from the earth to the moon

What is the distance from the earth to the sun measured in feet?
The average distance from the Earth to the Sun in the course of a year = 93 million miles and there are 5280 feet in a mile.(93,000,000 x 5,280) = 491,040,000,000 feet (about 491 billion feet)Of course, this varies during the year, with the Earth closest to the Sun in January, and farthest from the Sun in July.
What can be measured in kilometres?
Distance is measured in kilometres, such as the distance between two towns, or the distance from the Earth to the Moon.
