It varies from about 5.2 million km to 7.7 million km. It was at aphelion in 1992 and has since been getting closer, though since its orbital period is about 280 years it's still pretty close to the maximum distance.
Ceres is about 3 astronomical units (AU) away from Haumea. (1 AU is the average distance between Earth and the Sun)
Haumea's orbit is oval shaped, taking it from 34.72 AU out to 51.54 AU from the sun. Currently it's about 50 AU from the sun.
The people who have been the closest to Haumea were the Apollo astronauts in orbit around the moon. At about 250,000 miles further out from the Earth, this distance is insignificant, since Haumea is over fifty times the distance from the Sun than Earth orbits at.
Haumea is one of the newly-discovered Kuiper Belt Objects out beyond the orbit of Neptune. It has a perihelion distance of about 35 AU.
Haumea takes 283.28 years to orbit the Sun.
Ceres is about 3 astronomical units (AU) away from Haumea. (1 AU is the average distance between Earth and the Sun)
Haumea orbits between 34.952 and 51.483 AU from the Sun.

The distance of Eris from the Sun varies between approximately 38 and 98 astronomical units, i.e. between 38 and 98 times Earth's distance from the Sun.
One Astronomical Unit is the mean distance between the Sun and the Earth.
Same as distance between sun and earth ... averaging 93 million miles.
The distance between the Moon and Earth is larger than the Sun's radius. The average distance between the Moon and Earth is about 384,400 km while the Sun's radius is about 696,340 km.
The gravitational force between the Earth and sun certainly depends on the distance between the Earth and sun. But the gravitational force between, for example, the Earth and me does not.
the distance between the earth and sun is shortest in the month of...
