Dwarf Planet, Pluto is closest to the Sun. At its farthest orbital point, Pluto is 4.67 billion miles or 40.7 AU (astronomical Units) away from earth. When they are closest together, they are 2.66 billion miles or 28.64 AU apart.
Pluto's distance from Earth varies from 2.6 to 4.6 billion miles depending on the position of Earth and Pluto in their orbits around the Sun. The distance from the Sun is 2.8 to 4.5 billion miles.
This distance varies every day as Saturn and Pluto take up different positions in their respective orbits.
It covers more distance and ground than Earth
The distance between the Sun and Earth is 149,600,000 kilometers, and the distance between the Sun and Pluto is 5.9 billion kilometers. The gravitational pull decreases with an increase in distance. So, the gravitational pull of the Sun on Pluto is much less than its pull on Earth. So, in the model, Pluto’s orbit would have a much larger radius than Earth’s orbit.
The distance of Pluto from Earth varies significantly due to their elliptical orbits, ranging from about 4.28 billion kilometers (2.66 billion miles) at its closest approach to over 7.52 billion kilometers (4.67 billion miles) when they are on opposite sides of the Sun. As for its distance from the Sun, Pluto orbits at an average distance of about 5.9 billion kilometers (3.67 billion miles). These distances can change as both Earth and Pluto travel along their respective orbits.
At its closest, Pluto is around 4,436,824,613 km from the sun. Taking off the earth to sun distance of 150 million km, the closest that Pluto will get to earth is around 4,286,800,000km. At its furthest Pluto would be around 6,050,000,000km from earth
Pluto's distance from Earth varies from 2.6 to 4.6 billion miles depending on the position of Earth and Pluto in their orbits around the Sun. The distance from the Sun is 2.8 to 4.5 billion miles.
The distance from Earth to Pluto depends on the point in their rotation around the Sun. However, it is generally considered that Pluto is 7.5 billion kilometers from the Earth.
The nearest distance between Pluto and Earth is about 2.66 billion miles (4.28 billion kilometers) when they are on the same side of the Sun. However, this distance varies as both planets orbit the Sun in elliptical paths.
When I was a kid Pluto was closer to the sun than Neptune. Now it is further away. The distance between Pluto and earth will vary as Pluto orbits the sun--Pluto's orbit is fairly eccentric. At aphelion (furthest distance from the sun) Pluto is 48.871 AU (average earth/sun distance) from the sun. That is 4.542 billion miles. When the earth is on the opposite side of the sun, that would maximize the distance to Pluto at close to 4.635 billion miles (4.542 billion plus 93 million). Pluto will reach its next maximum distance from us in 2113, just over a century from now (2012). At its closest Pluto is 29.657 AU from the sun, or 2.757 billion miles. Some time during 1989 earth and Pluto were lined up on the same side of the sun, and the distance between them was minimized to roughly 2.664 billion miles.
About 40 AU.
I dont know really
Pluto's jouney around the sun takes about 248.4 earth yaers
This distance varies every day as Saturn and Pluto take up different positions in their respective orbits.
It covers more distance and ground than Earth
4,507,000,000 miles.
The distance between the Sun and Earth is 149,600,000 kilometers, and the distance between the Sun and Pluto is 5.9 billion kilometers. The gravitational pull decreases with an increase in distance. So, the gravitational pull of the Sun on Pluto is much less than its pull on Earth. So, in the model, Pluto’s orbit would have a much larger radius than Earth’s orbit.
