Uranus is 20 AU from the sun. Therefore, at its closest it is 20-1 AU from earth, and when the earth is on the other side of the sun, 20+1 AU.
I always prefer it when Uranus is near by. If it were even closer, it would be quite lovely, and we might find it a convenient location for disposing of nuclear wastes. We could put the waste on board big rockets, and shoot them straight up into Uranus.
Ha ha ha!

What is the planets distance from the sun converted into AUs?
Mercury, 57,909,175km or 0.39AU Venus, 108,208,930km or 0.72AU Earth, 149,597,890km or 1 AU Mars, 227,936,640km or 1.52AU Jupiter, 778,412,010km or 5.20AU Saturn, 1,426,725,400km or 9.54AU Uranus, 2,870,972,200km or 19.19AU Neptune, 4,498,252,900km or 30.07AU
How many light years is Uranus to the earth?
Uranus is about 20 au (astronomical units) from the sun. Earth is 1 (which is the definition of astronomical unit), and 8.3 light minutes. 8.3 x 20 = 166 light minutes for Uranus. So when earth and Uranus are on the same side of the sun, the distance between them is minimized to 166 - 8 = 158 light minutes. When Uranus is on the opposite side of the sun from earth, the distance is maximized to 166 + 8 = 174 light minutes. There is a bit more variation introduced by planetary aphelion and perihelion (the orbits are not perfect circles but ellipses). The average distance is best described as the hypotenuse of a right triangle using those values: sqr(166^2 + 8^2), which is still about 166 light minutes.
What is the average distance between Jupiter and Saturn?
It's going to vary, depending on where they are in their orbits. At their closest they will be around 4.3AU while at opposite sides of the solar system they will be around 14.7AU. 1 AU = earth to sun distance of around 93 million miles.
If an object in space is 2 aus from the sun then this object is?
In space, an object that is 2 astronomical units (AU) away from the sun is located at a distance roughly twice the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. This object would be within the inner solar system, closer to the sun than most of the major planets but farther away than Mercury.
What is smaller an astronomical unit or the average size of Neptune's orbit?
An astronomical unit (AU) is smaller than the average size of Neptune's orbit. 1 AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, which is about 93 million miles. Neptune's average distance from the Sun is about 30 astronomical units, making it significantly larger than the distance of 1 AU.
How many AUs between Earth and Uranus?
Between 0.3 and 1.7 roughly. The bigger distance is when venus is on the other side of he sun from us.
If you are traveling at light years what planet can you get to in 6 hours?
Light-speed is 299,800 km/s. The Earth is 8 light-minutes from the Sun at a distance of 1 astronomical unit, so in 6 hours you could get to a distance of 360/8 AUs, which is 45 AUs or more than double the distance of Uranus. It would be time for a radio signal to go to Uranus and back.
How do you calculate distance between earth and sun?
One austronomical unit or AU for short. AUs where made specifically for this
What is the planets distance from the sun converted into AUs?
Mercury, 57,909,175km or 0.39AU Venus, 108,208,930km or 0.72AU Earth, 149,597,890km or 1 AU Mars, 227,936,640km or 1.52AU Jupiter, 778,412,010km or 5.20AU Saturn, 1,426,725,400km or 9.54AU Uranus, 2,870,972,200km or 19.19AU Neptune, 4,498,252,900km or 30.07AU
How many aus from earth to sun?
The distance between Earth and the Sun is approximately 1 astronomical unit (AU), which is about 93 million miles or 150 million kilometers.
How many light years is Uranus to the earth?

What distance equals a light-year?
9.46 trillion kilometers, about 6 trillion miles. There are just about as many AUs (astronomical units, the average distance between the Earth and the Sun) in a light year as there are inches in a mile.
How many miles between lax and aus?
I will take aus as center of Australia. They are 8122 miles (approximate distance) away from each other. Note that this is a straight distance between the two places. The actual distance may vary according to the flight path or road/sea route chosen.
How many kilometers between Canada and Australia?
The distance between Halifax NS and Melbourne AUS is 17500+/- 20km
Air miles from Austin to Denver?
The distance between AUS and DEN is about 760 air miles.
How does distance between earth and sun compare to distance between earth and nearby stars and galaxies?
We measure distances between celestial objects (such as suns, planets, and galaxies) by a unit of measurement called "AU" which stands for, Astronomical Unit. One AU is the equivalent to 93 million miles, which is roughly the distance from earth to the sun. Let's compare that to the next closest star to us, Alpha Centauri, which is 4.4 light years away, or about 271,930 AUs! Distances are Immense.
How many AUs is between the sun and earth?
Exactly one AU is between the sun and the Earth.AU= 93,000,000 miles.
