How far is the Earth from the Moon?
The average distance between the Earth and the Moon is 384 400 km (238 855 miles). The Moon’s elliptical orbit with the distances at apogee and perigee. Note that the Earth is not at the very centre of the orbit and that the eccentricity of the orbit has been exaggerated here! Credit: NASA/Luc Viator/Affelia Wibisono.
What is the distance from the Earth to space?
This boundary sits some 62 miles (100 kilometers) above Earth's surface, and it's generally accepted as the place where Earth ends and outer space begins. From a cosmic perspective, 100 km is a stone's throw; it's only one-sixth the driving distance between San Francisco and Los Angelas.
What is the distance between Earth and the Sun?
The distance between Earth and Sun is probably the least critical with respect to the average temperatures on Earth. The distance between Earth and Sun is about 92 million miles and the change in distance due to the eccentric orbit of Earth around the Sun is around 3 million miles.
How do you calculate the distance between two points?
- Make a note of the coordinates of the two given points on the coordinate plane as follows: A (x 1 ,y 1) and B (x 2 ,y 2 ).
- We may use the distance formula to calculate the distance between two places,
- Express the given answer in units.
Distance From To: Calculate distance between two addresses, cities, states, zipcodes, or locations
Enter a city, a zipcode, or an address in both the Distance From and the Distance To address inputs. Click Calculate Distance, and the tool will place a marker at each of the two addresses on the map along with a line between them. The distance between them will appear just above the map in both miles and kilometers.
Other tools to help with distance questions
In addition to this tool we also offer a couple other tools that can help find the distance on a map. You can use the mileage calculator to compare the difference between driving or flying between 2 cities.
