Venus is closer to the sun than any other planet except Mercury. Its mean (average) distance from the sun is about 67 million miles (108 million kilometres).
When Venus is on the far side of the Sun from Earth, it can be as far as 261 million kilometers away. That varies widely, depending on which part of the orbit the Earth and Venus is. At its closest - during an inferior conjunction - Venus is at a distance of about 41 million kilometers.
