Mercury is about 48000000 miles (77300000 kilometers) from Earth at its closest
Depending on where Mercury is relative to the Earth as the two planets orbit the sun, the distance from Mercury to Earth varies from 77.3x106km (or 48.0x106 miles) to 221.9x106km (or 137.9x106 miles).
The earth is 149.6 million km from the sun.
Mercury is 0.5167 AU from Earth. AU stands for astronomical unit. Mercury is 48,000,000 miles from Earth at its closest approach.
Mercury is an average distance of 48 million miles (77 million km) from Earth.
Mercury's diameter is 0.3825 times that of Earth's
Mercury:757.75 miles Venus:1,925 miles Earth:1,981.75 miles Mars:1,050 miles Jupiter:22,125 miles
Mercury is much smaller than earth.
Mercury is closer to the earth than the sun is, because the orbit of Mercury is between the sun and the orbit of Earth. However, when Mercury is on the opposite side of the sun from the earth, the sun is closer to the earth than Mercury is.
The moon is 1079 miles wide Mercury is 1515 miles wide Mercury is only 436 miles wider. Hope This Helps! :)
Diameter of Mercury is 3031 miles; mass 3.250x1020. Diameter of Earth is 7926 miles (at Equator); mass 5.288x1021. Earth's mass is therefore about 16 times that of Mercury. Volumes can be calculated from diameters.
The minimum distance of Mercury from the Earth is 77.3x106 km.
The distance between earth and mercury depends on whether mercury is on the same side of the sun or the opposite side!
