Best Answer

The distance between Mars and Earth does vary, as they both orbit around the sun; they are much closer when they are both on the same side of the sun, than they are when they are on opposite sides of the sun. However, Mars will never actually be close to Earth. It doesn't get closer than about 56 million kilometers (35 million miles) away.
