  • Mars Orbit Distance: How Far from the Sun is the Red Planet?
    Mars orbits the Sun at an average distance of 142 million miles (228 million kilometers). However, Mars' orbit is not perfectly circular, it's slightly elliptical. So, its distance from the Sun varies throughout its orbit.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Perihelion (closest point to the Sun): 128 million miles (206 million km)

    * Aphelion (farthest point from the Sun): 155 million miles (249 million km)
