Best Answer

The distance between earth and sun is constantly changing, because our orbit around the sun is elliptical and not circular. All orbits in the solar system are elliptical, although some are closer to being circular than others.

Aphelion, earth's farthest approach to the sun, is 152,098,232 km. Perihelion, earth's closest approach to the sun, is 147,098,290 km.
