Farthest vs Furthest. âFarthestâ and âfurthestâ both refer to distance, but the difference lies in the usage. âFarthestâ refers to the physical distance, and âfurthestâ refers to a greater or higher degree. Many users use the two words in the same context and meaning. This creates quite a confusing situation.
Right now the farthest that we have sent a spaceship that has people onboard has been to the moon. That's only 250,000 miles away. That seems far, but the sun is 93,000,000 miles away! The furthest unmanned spaceships are the Pioneer and Voyager probes that visited Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus.e have put telescopes in space, like the Hubble Space Telescope. A telescope in space is above Earth's atmosphere. This lets us see more clearly and also lets us see kinds of light, like ultraviolet and X-rays, that don't go through the atmosphere.
