what are the distances of the planets from the sun?

Mercury 36-million miles\nVenus 67.2-million miles\nEarth 92.9-million miles\nMars 141.5-million miles\nJupiter 483.3-million miles\nSaturn 886.2-million miles\nUranus 1.8-billion miles\nNeptune 3-billion miles\nPluto 4-billion miles

The distance from Earth to Venus ranges from 41 million to 258 million km depending on where each is in its own orbit. Venus' gravitational pull is .9 g of 1 Earth g.

Do mean "difference" or "distance"?\n\nIf it's difference, well, Venus is the 2nd planet from the sun, Mars is the 4th planet from the sun, and Jupiter is the 5th planet from the sun.\n\nVenus is a rocky planet just slightly smaller than earth with a hot, dense, atmosphere.\nMars is a rocky planet just over half the diameter of earth with a cold, atmosphere with a pressure of about 1/10 that of earth.\nJupiter is a gas giant that could contain many earths.\n\nI'm guessing that your question has more to do with the distances between the orbits of the planets rather than the actual distances between the planets because the distance between the planets can vary greatly depending on where each is it's orbit.\n\nThe site linke below has the distances in astronomical units and kilometers (km) from the sun for the orbits of each planet.  Maybe from that you can figure out the answer to your question.

If both Jupiter and Uranus be in their shortest distances from saturn, then Jupiter will be the nearest. The distance will be around 5 A.U (Astronomical Unit)(1 A.U=150000000kms).

The sun is the center of the solar system, revolving around it are the nine planets namely: mercury, venus, earth, mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus, neptune and pluto.

Both the Earth and Pluto orbit around the sun at different rates so their relative positions are constantly changing.  In addition, Pluto has an extremely eccentric orbit that at some times brings it closer to the sun than Neptune.  Using their orbital extremes and considering their positions around the sun, these are the closest and furthest distances between Earth and Pluto.\n\nClosest (Earth at furthest point from sun, Pluto at closest, both on same side of sun) - 4,284,726,912 kilometers (2,662,405,870 miles)\nFurthest(Earth at furthest point from sun, Pluto at furthest, both on opposite sides of sun) - 7,223,830,230 km (4,488,680,000 miles)

The inner planets are the 4 planets who's orbits are closest to the sun (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars).  The asteroid belt (and millions and millions of miles) seperates the inner planets from the outer planets.\n\nCompared to the distances in between the outer planets, the inner planets might as well be right next to eachother, the distances really start getting big in the outer solar system.

The distance between the earth and the sun is not constant.  The earth's\norbit around the sun is nearly circular, but not perfectly so. \nOn average, the distance between the earth and the sun is 93 million miles.\nThis is not anywhere near a light-year.  It is more like 8.3 light-minutes.

This would depend on where the Earth and Mars are in their orbits.  \n\nIf Earth and Mars are on opposite sides of the Sun then they could at most be: 234 million miles away.\n\nIf on the same side of the Sun and lined up with the Sun then they could be as close as 47 million miles. \n\nI got the following number today from a computer program for the distance based on today's position of Mars: 94.3 million miles.

The nearest star, the Sun, is 93 million miles from earth. The second closest, Proxima Centauri, is a small, red star at 4.2 light years.

At its closest, Venus is 26 million miles (41,840,000 km) away.\n\nMars is 35 million miles (56 million km) at the closest point in its orbit.\n\nThis is because the planets do not follow a circular orbit, but an elliptical one, around the sun.

The first spacecraft to visit the planet Pluto lifted off from Earth in January of 2006 and is expected to reach Pluto on July 14, 2015.  Pluto is so far from Earth that not even the Hubble Space telescope is able to take clear pictures of it.  Pluto's distance from the sun varies between 30 AU and 49 AU.  One AU is the distance between the Earth and the sun.  Pluto is so distant that man will very likely not visit for many 100's of years yet to come as we do not possess the technology to make the voyage to Pluto within an acceptable period of time.  Compare this to the distance between Earth and Mars which is only 0.37 AU (35 million miles).

Pluto.\n\nPluto\nTiny Pluto is the last planet in our family. The dark, cold planet's average distance from the Sun is a little over 3.5 billion (3,500,000,000) miles. If you tried to step off this distance, you would be over two miles away from your Sun when you reached the location of Pluto. If you got on a jet and flew at 600 miles per hour from the Sun to Pluto, it would take 675 years. If you could drive the same distance, it would take over 5,700 years.

Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. the asteroid belt is located between the 5th planet (Mars) and the planet Jupiter

At 09:38am EDT on May 15, 2006, the planets were not aligned, not even close--the planets were all over the sky.\n\nIn order along the ecliptic, starting with Aires (where the sun is) and going around through Pisces, etc. we have:\n\nMercury, Venus, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars\n\nSaturn and Mars were about 17 degrees apart, but everything else was even farther apart.  Saturn and Jupiter were farthest apart, at 96 degrees.
