The distance of Venus from Earth is currently 158,042,480.0 kilometers, equivalent to 1.0564487266 Astronomical Units. Light takes 8m 47.173sto travel from Venus and arrive to us. The following chart shows the distance of Venus from Earth as a function of time. In the chart the distance data is measured in Astronomical Unitsand sampled with an inte...
Between 1 January 1600 and 30 December 2499, the closest approach of Venus to Earth happens on Sat Dec 12 1615 at a distance of 0.264008 Astronomical Units, or 39,494,992 kilometers: NOTE: values for the closest approach are computed with a sampling interval of 1 day.
The following chart is the predicted light curve (visual magnitude as a function of time) of Venus, according to the most recent ephemeridesdata. Magnitude data is sampled with a 2 days interval and there might be inaccuracies for objects changing brightness very rapidly during the course of a few days. For comets there could be large discrepancies...
