The distance varies (a little bit) depending on the year.  I'll assume you are referring to 2006.  The perihelion for 2006 occurred on January 4th.  The distance at this point in our orbit was aproximately 91,376,859.108 miles (with July 5th being the aphelion of 94,537,401.539 miles).  Based upon the perihelion and aphelion we can calculate the dates you have outlined:\n\n03-21-06: 92,730,130.038 miles\n06-21-06: 94,319,132.034 miles\n09-21-06: 94,310,401.253 miles\n12-21-06: 92,703,937.698 miles\n\nAs this illustrates, the orbit of the Earth around the Sun is elliptical.

About 8.\n\n\nTo clear up any  ambiguity contributed here by some--- The average distance from the Earth to the Sun (or 1 astronomical unit) is 8.317 light minutes. Saying it's "more" or "less" sometimes is stating the obvious-- it's an AVERAGE. Saying it's "usually" different than its average, is nonsensical. \n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_minute

the nearest star is the sun having nine planets in orbit.the sun is 93,027,003 miles away from earth.if you dont beleive me,go ask you teacher or someone.

Saturn is about 9.6 times farther from the Sun than the Earth. Saturn's average distance to the Sun is just short of being 1 billion miles. The Earth average distance is 93 million miles. \n\nDear Ganch, the definition of a kilometer is that it takes 10,000 of them to go from the Earth's equator to one of the poles. The Earth's circumference is, therefore 40,000 km. The Earth's diameter is 12,756 km. The distance from the sun to the Earth in km is 150 million km (93 million miles) and the distance from the Sun to Saturn is 1 billion 427 million km (890 million miles-- 0.89 billion miles.)The distance from Los Angeles to London os 8,800 km. I really hope the Sun is a little farther than that! Thanks.

The distance required for the asteroid to travel around the sun = \n\n2PI *radius.....Radius R = 632 million kilometers\nThe orbiting circle for the asteroid is 3968.96 million kilometers\n\nDividing by the time it takes the asteroid to orbit a whole orbit around the sun, we should get the velocity\n\n3968.96 / 8.6485 million kilometers per year.\n\nOne million kilometers multiplied by 10^9  converts to meters\nOne year is = 365*24*3600 = seconds \n\nBy converting the Kilometers to meters and the years to seconds you should get:\n\n1257312021 / 11364129 = \n\n14552 meters per seconds approximately\n\nYou should double check the divisions and multiplication.

On average, the distance is 384401 kilometres (238857 mi). There are of course variations in this distance due to the imperfect nature of the moon's orbit.

It is 238,857 miles away. Light travels at 186,000 miles a second. So roughly a second and a quarter

About 93 million miles away from the sun, give or take...about the same as earth, since the moon orbits the earth.\n\nIf you mean, what is the APPARENT position of the moon in relation to the sun, as seen from earth, it varies all the time, from 0 degrees (as during a solar eclipse) to 180 degrees (a lunar eclipse).

From the sun (sol) about 8 minutes and 12 seconds... From other stars, MUCH longer, over four years from the closest one (Proxima Centauri).

The diameter of the Earth's orbit around the Sun is about 300,000,000 kilometers

The sun. The sun is, on average, 93 million miles from the earth. Pluto orbits the sun over 2 billion miles away. The nearest star is over 4 light years away. (Light travels 186,000 miles, or about 300,000,000 meters, in a second - try figuring out how far that is in a year!) The nearest galaxy is over 4 million light years away - an amazing distance!

The distance from the current position of our sun to the constellation Hercules is 24.7 light years or 259,218,478,000,000 kilometers.\n\nThere are two different speeds that our sun is measured at. The first is its velocity relative to the stars around it. This is measured as 20 km/s.  Using this figure, it would take 12,960,923,900,000 seconds or 821,976.402 years to reach Hercules, assuming the Hercules did not move (which it does).\n\nThe second speed is the sun's velocity relative to the galactic core.  This is 217 km/s.  At this speed, it would take 1,194,555,200,000 seconds or 75,758.1938 years to reach Hercules (same assumption as above).

100 miles distance is quite insignificant as compared to the millions of Kilometers of the distance between the Sun and the Earth. Nothing will happen except change in duration of day and night for a few seconds.

I'm not a physisist nor an astronomist, just crunching some numbers.\n\nAllowing that the speed of light is 186,000 mps, then:\n\nMercury (36) = 3 1/2 minutes\nVenus (67.2) = 6 minutes\nEarth (93)   = 8 1/2 minutes\nMars (141.7) = 13 minutes\nJupiter (484) = 43 minutes\nSaturn (887)  = 1 hour, 19 minutes\nUranus (1785) = 2 hours\nNeptune (2795)= 4 hours, 10 minutes\nPluto (3675)  = 6 1/2 hours\n\n*number in () is the distance in millions of miles from the sun\n*all times were rounded
