Best Answer

The closest star to Mars is the Sun. The distance of Mars to the Sun is 227.92 million km or 141.62 million miles. However, Mars orbits the sun in an elliptical orbit, so at its closest point called the perihelion, it is only 206.62 million km away, or 128.39 million miles. At its farthest point, Mars is 249.23 million km away, or 154.86 million miles.
