It is difficult to tell the distance between both the planets Earth and Mars because the orbit of Earth around the sun is smaller than Mars as Earth is the third planet and Mars is fourth from the Sun. So the distance between both the planets varies :
>> Minimum distance – 54.6 million kilometers
>> Maximum distance – 401 million kilometers
>> Average distance – 225 million kilometers
The minimum distance from the Earth to Mars is about 54.6 million kilometers. The farthest apart they can be is about 401 million km. The average distance is about 225 million km.
