31 gru 2023 · The diagram represents the orbits of Earth and Mars as viewed from above the solar system. It shows the distance between Earth and Mars at every opposition between 2018 and 2033. Mars will reach ...
8 paź 2019 · The Astronomical units (AU) column is the average distance between Earth and the Sun and is the most common way for scientists to measure distance in our Solar System. Below is a table of the distances between each of the planets in our solar system.
The distance between Earth and Mars at opposition varies from around 0.3728 Astronomical Units (34.6 million miles or 55.7 million kms) at perihelion to 0.6780 AU (63 million miles or 101.4 million kms) at aphelion. This is easily the greatest variation in opposition distance of all the Solar System planets.

20 lut 2024 · Neptune will be at its closest to Earth the day before opposition, September 15, at only 2.7 billion miles (4.3 billion km) distance. At opposition, the Sun’s light will fully illuminate...
4 lut 2019 · Why is this? If the orbits of the Earth and Mars were absolutely fixed we would sometimes be a little closer to Mars at the nearest opposition in any 15 to 17 year period and sometimes further away, but the very closest approaches would be more or less the same distance, as shown in the table above.
