What is the distance between the sun and earth?
The Astronomical Unit is defined to be 149,597,870.7 km.
At aphelion, the Earth is at 152,000,000 km, and at perihelion, it is at 147,100,000 km.
The average distance between Earth and the Sun is the basis for the Astronomical Unit, or AU, which was officially recognized as an international standard in 2012 and is precisely 49,597,870.7 km.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.

- What size was the universe after inflation?
- How can the universe be infinite and expanding?
- What if Earth were the size of Jupiter? What would be different about life as we know it?
- How much bigger is the Sun compared to the Earth?
- How do we know the distance of stars? If we look east and see a star that is 100 million light years away, then look west and see a star that is 500 millions years away, how can we tell the difference?
