Earth’s Distance from the Sun


The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is known as an Astronomical Unit (AU).



  • It is approximately 149.6 million kilometers (about 93 million miles).



  • This distance varies slightly throughout the year because Earth’s orbit is elliptical—closest at perihelion (~147.1 million km) and farthest at aphelion (~152.1 million km).



  • The astronomical unit is a fundamental standard for measuring distances within our solar system.



Key facts:



  • Average distance ≈ 149.6 million km (1 AU)



  • Varies due to elliptical orbit



  • Basis for measuring planetary distances



Understanding Earth’s distance from the Sun is essential for studying seasons, climate, and orbital mechanics.


Mile


A mile is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom to measure long distances. One mile equals 5,280 feet or about 1.609 kilometers. Miles are often used to measure distances between cities, in running races like the mile run, or for driving distances shown on road signs. The abbreviation for mile is "mi". Although many countries use the metric system with kilometers, miles remain popular in some places for everyday distance measurements and travel.
