What is the distance between Io and the earth?

* The Earth orbits the Sun at a distance of about 150 million kilometres * Io is a moon of Jupiter. * Jupiter orbits the Sun at a distance of about 779 million kilometres * Io orbits Jupiter at a distance of about 0,5 million kilometres So, the distance from the Earth to Jupiter can range from when both are on the same side of the sun, and at their closest to each other.... 779 - 150 = 529 million kilometres; to when they are on opposite sides of the sun = 779 + 150 +1 (the sun's thickness) = 930 million kilometres. Allowing for Io's orbit you could add, or subtract, about 1 million from the figures above... giving an overall range of anywhere between 528 and 931 million kilometres.
