I was searchin' google real quick and couldn't find this out...figured you guys might know. Which planet is closer to the Earth: Mars or Venus?

Depends on where each Mars, Venus and Earth are in their orbits.
Venus orbits the sun at about 68 million miles.
Earth orbits the sun at about 93 million miles.
Mars orbits the sun at about 140 million miles."Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."
--H.L. Mencken -
so as they move along their orbits the distance between them is constantly changing?Originally posted by NetRodentComment

Venus has been pretty brilliant as the evening star here, very nice.
Mars and the Moon were real close two days ago, that was a pretty picture too. Mars is getting dimmer fast, it's moving away from us pretty quickly now.Comment
