  • Planetary Distances from the Sun: A Comprehensive Overview
    Here is the average distance of each planet from the Sun, in astronomical units (AU):

    * Mercury: 0.39 AU

    * Venus: 0.72 AU

    * Earth: 1 AU (by definition)

    * Mars: 1.52 AU

    * Jupiter: 5.2 AU

    * Saturn: 9.58 AU

    * Uranus: 19.2 AU

    * Neptune: 30.1 AU

    Important Note:

    * These are average distances. Planets move in elliptical orbits, so their distances from the Sun vary.

    * An astronomical unit (AU) is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, which is approximately 93 million miles (150 million kilometers).
