The actual distance from Earth to Jupiter varies constantly as the two planets orbit the Sun, and can be any distance between 588.4 million and 968.6 million kilometers.
The distance between the average radii of their orbits is about 629 million kilometers. (Earth 149.6 million kilometers to Jupiter's 778.5 million kilometers)
To travel between the planets would require a much longer, curved path than the simple distance between their positions

∙ 6y agoEarth is 1 AU from the Sun; Jupiter is (on average) 5.2 AU from the Sun - so the smallest distance is when both are on the same side of the Sun: 5.2 - 1 = 4.2 AU; while the largest distance, when they are on opposite sides of the Sun, is 5.2 + 1 = 6.2 AU.This simplified calculation assumes circular orbits.

What is Jupiter's minimum distance from earth?
The minimum distance of Jupiter from Earth (i.e. the closest approach) is equal to about 588.5x10^6 km.
What is the distance from Jupiter Saturn and Uranus' to earth?
its is 234,667 from the earth. :)
What is the distance of jupiters moons in astronomical units?
Answer: you would have to be specific there are a lot of moons orbitting Jupiter Answer: The distance from Earth to Jupiter's moons is the same as the distance from Earth to Jupiter. The distance from Jupiter to its moons is insignificant, and can be ignored.
Earth to Jupiter distance in time how long to travel from earth to Jupiter?
about 1.659 light years. (answered by wikianswers.com)
How large is Jupiter seen from Saturn?
From my calculations the distance from Saturn to Jupiter is nearly the same distance it is from Earth to Jupiter. Give or take 50 million miles or so the view of Jupiter from Saturn would be about the same as our view here is on Earth. Good question!!

How far is Jupiter from the Moon?
Earth and Jupiter orbit the sun at different distances and speeds so the distance from Earth to Jupiter itself varies a lot. On average, the distance of any moon of Jupiter to the Earth is the distance from Earth to Jupiter.

How long would it take to travel to Europa if you traveled at the speed of light?
To the Moon Europa, you mean? Europa is a Moon of Jupiter; Jupiter is at a distance of about 40 minutes, on average. The distance from Earth varies, both because of the excentricity of Jupiter's orbit, and (mainly) because of the fact that the Earth goes on its orbit around the Sun.To the Moon Europa, you mean?

Whats the distance from Jupiter and earth in Kilometers?
The distance between Jupiter and Earth varies depending on their positions in their respective orbits. On average, the distance is about 778 million kilometers. At their closest approach (opposition), they can be as close as 365 million kilometers, and at their farthest (conjunction), the distance can be as far as 928 million kilometers.
How many miles is the earth to Europa?
Europa is a moon of Jupiter, so the distance will vary. However the approximate distance to Jupiter, from Earth is 365 million miles

Why is the distance from earth to Jupiter not exact but is an average?
The distance from Earth to Jupiter is not exact but is an average, because both planets orbit the Sun. The distance varies because at some times Jupiter and Earth will be on the same side of the Sun, but at other times they are on opposite sides of the Sun.
