The closest the earth gets to the sun is 146 million km (91 million miles) at perihelion, during winter in the Northern Hemisphere, which is summer in the Southern Hemisphere.
We are farthest away at aphelion, during Northern Hemisphere summer, maximum distance is 152 million km (94.5 million miles).
The average distance between the sun and the earth is 149 million kilometers (93 million miles).
The Earths orbital distance from the sun is 147,098,290km (91,402,641 miles) at its closest (Perihelion).
how does earths distance from the sun change throughout the year
93000000 miles
Varying from the the distance from the Earth to the Moon + the distance from the sun to the earth + the distance from mercury to the sun, to the distance from the earth to the sun - the distance from mercury to the sun - the distance from the earth to the moon
Earth. This is how an astronomical distance is defined, Earths average distance from the sun.
The nearest planet to the sun is Mercury. It orbits the sun at an average distance of about 36 million miles.
it would have to be fractional the sun is not far enough
93 Million miles.
The sun. Next closest is proxima centuri.
Based on their average distance from the sun, the Earth is the nearest.
This statement is incorrect. Earth's angular momentum remains constant throughout its orbit around the Sun. Although Earth moves faster when it is closer to the Sun due to Kepler's second law of planetary motion, this is balanced by its greater distance from the Sun when it is farthest, resulting in a constant angular momentum.
There's no such thing as "earth's" star. The nearest star that's not the sun is Proxima Centauri, roughly 4.4 light years away.
