It is a bit less than a quarter of a million miles from the Earth to the moon.
Moon is closest (¼ million miles), then the Sun (93 million miles), then the stars are the furthest (trillions of miles).
Europa is a moon of Jupiter, so the distance will vary. However the approximate distance to Jupiter, from Earth is 365 million miles
The answer is 3.9 x 10^8 meters. Or...3.9 x 10^5 kilometers.
The moon is approximately 240,000 miles from earth.
The sun is one Earth distance (also known as an astronomical unit) from the Moon. This is because the Moon and Earth orbit the sun together, at an average distance called the Earth-Moon barycenter. This is approximately 93 million miles away from the sun, on average; the Moon can be up to a quarter-million (250,000) miles closer or further from the sun at any given time, depending on where it is in its orbit.
How FAR is the moon from the Earth? About a quarter of a million miles away. ~250,000 miles.
The Moon is about 384,399 kilometers from the Earth. This is about 0.245 million miles. In scientific notation, this is 2.45 x 105 miles, or 2.45 x 10-1 million miles.
About a quarter of a million miles.
Moon is closest (¼ million miles), then the Sun (93 million miles), then the stars are the furthest (trillions of miles).
The orbit of the earth is elliptical. At the closest point, the earth is 147 million kilometers from the sun. At the farthest, the earth is 152 million kilometers from the sun.
The moon orbits the earth at a distance of about 240 thousand miles. The earth orbits the sun at a distance of about 90 million miles. Mars orbits the sun at a distance at about 140 million miles, and these orbits are not purely circular. So the distance from earth to mars varies wildly from around 50 million miles to around 230 million miles. So the odd 1/4 of a million miles that the moon is from earth is a triviality in comparison.
It varies - the moon orbits the Earth so the distance will change depending on Earth's distance from the sun as well as the moon's distance from the Earth. The minimum distance from the moon to the sun is when the Earth is closest to the sun and the moon is in new moon phase (meaning its closer to the sun than the Earth). The distance from the moon to the sun is: Earth's distance at perihelion - moon's distance from Earth at apogee. This works out to 146,692,370 km. The maximum distance from the moon to the sun is when the Earth is farthest from the sun and the moon is in full moon phase. The distance from the moon to the sun is Earth's distance at aphelion + moon's distance from Earth at apogee. This works out to 150,503,400 km.
238,000 miles from earth. 93 million miles from sun.
Not even close. The Moon orbits the Earth, which is 93 million miles away from the Sun, at a distance of about 240,000 miles. Jupiter is more than five times distant from the Sun than the Earth, at about 480 million miles away.
Europa is a moon of Jupiter, so the distance will vary. However the approximate distance to Jupiter, from Earth is 365 million miles
The sun is 93 million miles away from the earth.
