... to the Sun: An AU (Astronomical Unit)
ANSWER: An AU is the astronimical distance from the Earth to the sun. Roughly 93 million miles. It stands for Astronimical Unit. A distance that is used for solar distances.
Earth. This is how an astronomical distance is defined, Earths average distance from the sun.
An AU, or astronomical unit, is defined as the average distance from Earth to the Sun. Therefore, the distance from Earth to the Sun equals 1 AU.
An astronomical unit is the mean distance from Sun to Earth; this is about 150 million kilometers.
92,955,932.98 mi
Earth is the third planet from the sun. Astronomical Unit is the phrase that is used to describe the distance from the Earth to the sun. An astronomical Unit equals 92,955,807 miles.
One Light-year is 63,024 Astronomical units.
If I remember all of my astronomy classes correctly, the unit of measurement between Earth and the Sun is 1 A.U., or Astronomical Unit, which is equal to 93 million miles. 1 light year is equal to 5,865,696,000,000 miles (9,460,800,000,000 km). Astronimical Units are used to measure distance within our own galaxy. To measure the distance between stars and galaxies, the unit is called a parsec (PC). 1 PC = 3.26 light years. Hope this helps!
The average distance from the Sun to the Earth is one "astronomical unit" or "AU".
One astronomical unit (AU) is the distance between the Earth and the Sun.
The distance from the sun to the earth is one Astronomical Unit (AU).An AU, as defined by the International Astronomical Union, is the mean distance between the sun and the earth. That mean (or average) distance is about 149 million km (93 million miles).
Earth. An astronomical unit is the distance from the Earth to the Sun.
