14 lis 2012 · How far is Saturn from Earth? The distance to Saturn from our planet is constantly changing as both of the planets travel through space. When the two are closest, they lie approximately 746...
30 cze 2008 · For the sake of simplicity, Saturn is 1.2 billion km, roughly 7 AU, from the Earth when the two are at their closest approach to one another. They are 1.67 billion km, around 11 AU, from each...
The distance of Saturn from Earth is currently 1,379,059,033 kilometers, equivalent to 9.218440 Astronomical Units. Light takes 1 hours, 16 minutes and 40.0458 seconds to travel from Saturn and arrive to us.
Saturn orbits the Sun at a mean distance of 1,427,000,000 km (887 million miles). Its closest distance to Earth is about 1.2 billion km (746 million miles), and its phase angle—the angle that it makes with the Sun and Earth—never exceeds about 6°.
The distance of Saturn from Earth is currently 1,384,383,768 kilometers, equivalent to 9.254034 Astronomical Units. Light takes 1 hours, 16 minutes and 57.8072 seconds to travel from Saturn and arrive to us.
Both the Earth and Saturn orbit the Sun on eccentric orbits, which means their distances from the Sun vary over time, and therefore so do their distances from each other, hence varying the brightness of Saturn from one opposition to the next.
From an average distance of 886 million miles (1.4 billion kilometers), Saturn is 9.5 astronomical units away from the Sun. One astronomical unit (abbreviated as AU), is the distance from the Sun to Earth.
