The longest possible distance from one place to another on the surface of the earth is half of the earth's circumference.

(If it were any further, you could go around the other way, which would be shorter.)

Since the earth bulges slightly around the equator, the equator has the greatest circumference of any circle on the earth. The equatorial diameter is 7,926 miles (12,756 km) so the circumference at the equator is (7,926 x pi) = 24,900 miles (40,074 km).

The longest possible distance between one place and another on the earth is 12,450 miles (20,037 km).
