  • Earth-Sun Distance: Understanding the Variable Distance
    The distance between the Earth and the Sun is not a fixed number, as the Earth's orbit is elliptical.

    Here are some ways to express the distance:

    * Average distance: 93 million miles (150 million kilometers)

    * Closest point (perihelion): 91.4 million miles (147.1 million kilometers)

    * Farthest point (aphelion): 94.5 million miles (152.1 million kilometers)

    It's important to note that these are just approximations. The exact distance between the Earth and Sun changes constantly.
