What is the distance between Mars and Earth

The distance between mars and earth is estimated to be 225 million kilometer

- - Earth's average distance from the sun is about 93 million miles.

- - Mars' average distance around the sun is about 142 million miles.

- - So, as both planets travel in their orbits around the sun, the distance

between them changes, between (142 - 93) = about 49 million miles

and (142 + 93) = about 235 million miles.
