Science fiction writers have referred to our region of space as the “Goldilocks Zone” for the reason that it looks to be just suitable for life. As previously stated, the average distance between the Earth and the Sun is around 93 million miles (150 million kilometers). That’s equal to one AU. Contents1 How long would […]

The Earth’s closest approach to the sun, known as perihelion, occurs in early January and is around 91 million miles (146 million km) away from the sun, or just shy of one astronomical unit. Aphelion is the distance between Earth and the sun at which it is at its farthest distant. It arrives in early […]
