Astronomical Unit- The distance between objects in the solar system!
The term used to describe Earth travelling around the Sun is orbit.
An Astronomical Unit is the distance between Earth and the Sun and is used as a measurement unit for measuring the distances of other objects from Earth.
AU is not used to measure the distances on earth, because a astronomical unit is a unit of measurement equal to the distance between Earth and Sun. So that's why you cannot use Au for measure the distances on Earth.
An Astronomical Unit is a unit of measurement roughly equal to the average distance between the Earth and the Sun; about 150 Million Kilometres.
The average distance between Sun and Earth is called the "astronomical unit". It is approximately 150 million km.
The sun. Aphelion is the point in Earth's orbit where it is farthest from the sun.
The term for when the moon passes between the earth and the sun, blocking out light from the sun, is a solar eclipse. This creates a temporary shadow on Earth.
Aphelion
Good question. The answer is one. The term AU, or astronomical unit was defined as the distance from the Earth to the sun. It is 93 million miles and is used in solar system distances. The term light year is used for far greater distances, but the AU is still given.

The term is syzygy (astronomy) or a solar eclipse.
