The distance between the Earth and the Sun is on average roughly 150 million kilometers (93 million miles).

The exact distance varies for many factors. The biggest contributor is the fact that the orbit of Earth around the Sun is elliptical and not a perfect circle so the distance changes over the course of a year. The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is also called an "astronomical unit" (AU) and this unit is defined to be exactly 149 597 870 700 meters. This distance is so large that light from the Suns surface takes about 8 minutes to reach Earth.
