The distance between Venus and Earth varies depending on where the two planets are in their orbits. At their closest, the gap between them is 38 million kilometers, and at their furthest, 261 million kilometers.
It varies by the orbital position of the two planets. The average is about 26 million miles and the closest is about 24 million miles.
Earth's orbit averages 149 million kilometers (93 million miles) from the Sun.
Venus has an orbit of about 108 million kilometers (67 million miles) from the Sun.
The closest approach of about 39.5 million kilometers (23.6 million miles) would be with Venus at its farthest from the Sun and Earth at its closest. This is a rare occurrence.
When Venus lies between the Earth and the Sun, a position known as "inferior conjunction", it makes the closest approach to Earth of any planet, lying at a distance of 41 million km during inferior conjunction.
At 'superior conjunction' (when Venus is on the opposite side of the Sun and not visible to us) she is about 264 million kilometers from the Earth.
In distance, Venus has a smaller distance to travel than The Earth
Venus has an average distance from the Sun that is about 108% of Earth's distance. This makes Venus the planet closest to having a distance from the Sun that is 150% of Earth's distance.
Assuming you mean from Earth to Venus, about 38 million Kilometers, or about 23.6 million miles.
In order of their distance from the sun, the rocky planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
Using average distances from the Sun the minimum distance is 1.0 - 0.7233 astronomical units, 0.2767 AU or 41.39 million km.But using the eccentricity of the orbits as well, the Earth's distance is 1.0±0.01672 AU, while Venus's distance is 0.7233x(1±0.00679) AU.Therefore the Earth's minimum distance is 0.9833 AU and Venus's maximum distance is 0.7282 AU. The difference is 0.2551 AU so the minimum distance from the Earth to Venus is 38.16 million km.
If all three planets are in a straight line, then Earth and Venus are closer (~42 milion km) than Mercury and Venus (~50 million km) but since all three planets have different orbital periods, it is possible for Earth to be on the opposite side of the Sun from Venus and Mercury, in which case they would be closer to each other than Earth was to either of them.
Venus always has a diameter of 12140 km which does not change with its distance from Earth.
Venus can be fairly close to Earth, or it can be on the other side of the Sun. To get the (approximate) range of distances:* Look up the distance from Sun to Earth. * Look up the distance from Sun to Venus. * Add both to get the maximum distance; subtract them to get the minimum distance.
It takes 140 days more for the earth to go around the sun than Venus!
Virtually the same as the distance between Earth and Venus, which varies greatly according to where each is in its orbit. At its closest to Earth, Venus is still more than 100 times as far from Earth as the Moon.
Based on their average distance from the sun, the Earth is the nearest.
About 162 million miles
