The closest a human being has ever been to the Sun was during the Apollo missions, particularly Apollo 17, which took astronauts to the Moon. While they were about 238,855 miles (384,400 kilometers) away from Earth, the Sun's distance remains approximately 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from Earth, meaning the astronauts were still far from the Sun itself. However, the closest any human-made object has come to the Sun is the Parker Solar Probe, which will approach within about 3.83 million miles (6.16 million kilometers) of the solar surface.
