The loci of the Earth's revolution around the Sun is an elliptical orbit, as described by Kepler's First Law of Planetary Motion. This means that the path the Earth takes is not a perfect circle but an elongated shape with the Sun located at one of the two foci of the ellipse. The Earth's orbit has an average distance of about 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from the Sun, which defines the astronomical unit (AU). The orbit's slight eccentricity means that the distance between the Earth and the Sun varies throughout the year.
