The difference would be too small to calculate accurately. Earth's distance from the sun already varies by about 2 million miles over the course of a year, reaching its closest point of about 92 million miles in January and its farthest point of about 94 million miles in July.

Why is mars hotter than earth because earth is closer to the sun?

It isn't Earth is closer to the sun, therefore Earth is hotter. Martian surface temperatures vary from lows of about -87 °C during the polar winters to highs of up to -5 °C in summers. The wide range in temperatures is due to the thin atmosphere which cannot store much solar heat, the low atmospheric pressure, and the inability of Martian soil to store heat. The planet is also 1.52 times as far from the sun as Earth, resulting in just 43 percent of the amount of sunlight.


Which planet is just beyond earth?

Why does rigel shine as brightly as betelgeuse even though rigel is much smaller than betelgeuse?

Rigel appears as bright as Betelgeuse because it is closer to Earth than Betelgeuse, even though Rigel is smaller and less luminous. The brightness of a star is determined by both its luminosity and distance from Earth, so a smaller, closer star can appear just as bright as a larger, more distant one.


How does the distance that a planet is from the sun effects the temperature of the planet?

Why do some stars look brighter than others?

Stars look brighter than others due to factors such as their size, temperature, and distance from Earth. A larger and hotter star will appear brighter, as will a star that is closer to us. The brightness of a star as seen from Earth is measured by its apparent magnitude.
