The distance from the sun to mars?
As its orbit is elliptical, the distance depends on where in its orbit it is. However, the closest it is to the sun is 1.38 AU (with 1 AU being the distance from the sun to earth) or 207 million km. The furthest away it is, is 1.67 AU, or 249 million km. The average distance is 1.52 AU, or 228 million km

What measure in astonomical unites instead of kilometers?
The distance from the Sun to Earth is 149,958,000 kilometers, or 1 AU. When measuring distances around the solar system, which one would be simpler to use, km or AU? Since most interplanetary distances are expressed in AU anyway, it's easier to visualize AU than miles or kilometers.
Why do astronauts use AU instead of kilometers?
Using units such as the AU (within the Solar System) or the light-year or parsecs (for distances between stars, galaxies, etc.) results in numbers that are easier to grasp than meters or kilometers.
