There is a region in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter that, some scientists believed, ought to contain a planet. Early astronomers started looking for a planet in that gap, and found instead tens of thousands of small bodies that they called "little star-like thing". It sounds better in Latin; "Asteroid".
So the area between Mars and Jupiter is sometimes called the "asteroid belt".
0.52 AU.
about 54.6 million kilometers
Mars is 227,936,640 km (141,633,263 miles) from the sun on average.
The mean distance of Mars to the Sun is about 228 million kilometers. However the martian orbit is quite eccentric which leads to a difference of nearly 42 million kilometers between the furthest and the closest distance distance from the Sun.
Since Mars and Saturn both orbit the Sun, the distance between them is constantly changing as both planets move in their orbits.
Mars and Saturn
Jupiters orbit is between Mars and Saturn's orbit. Jupiters orbit can also be said to be within the orbits of Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
No. The distance between Jupiter and Saturn is larger than that of mars and Jupiter.
Mars' average distance from the sun is greater than Earth's average distance, and less than the average distance of most of the members of the asteroid belt. So, the answer is YES.
There are 141,600,000 miles, or 227,900,000 kilometers, between Mars and the Sun.
227,936,637
the distance between earth and mars changes after every minute. Both the planets travel along elliptical orbit that are not synchronized so they are continuously altering distance between them.the average distance between them is 225 million km. the closest approach was in the year 2003 when the earth and mars were separated by a distance of 56 million km.
This depends on where they are in their respective orbits.
400,181,821 km
0.52 AU.
Given the following approximate radii for Earth and mars orbits: Earth = 149,598,261 km Mars = 227,939,150 km The shortest distance between the two is the difference between the two, which yields 4minutes 21seconds for radio to go that distance. The longest distance between the two is the sum, which yields 21minutes.
Mars follows an elliptical orbit, so the distance between it and the sun varies. However, the average distance between the two objects is 207 million km, or 1.38 astronomical units, or 128,279,014.03 miles.
