The minimum distance is approximately 54,500,000 km (34 million miles).
The farthest the Earth ever gets from the Sun is 152 million kilometers and the
nearest Mars ever gets to the Sun is 207 million kilometers. So Earth and Mars could, very rarely, be a little less than 55 million kilometers (34 million miles) apart, when they are directly in line with the Sun. The closest recent distance was in 2003, when they were 56 million kilometers at closest approach.
Earth is closer to the Sun Earth is 92,960,000 miles (149,600,000 km) Sun, Distance to Earth Mars is141,600,000 miles (227,900,000 km) Mars, Distance from Sun
The order of planets from shortest year to longest year is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
The distance between Earth and Mars varies due to their positions in their orbits around the Sun. On average, Mars is about 225 million kilometers away from Earth. However, this distance can change as the two planets move along their respective orbits.
This distance is continuously varying as the two planets orbit the Sun. The minimum distance is about 0.5 au. That's because the (average) distance of Earth from the Sun is 1 au and the (average) distance of Mars from the Sun is 1.52 au.
Mars is on average about 50% further from the sun than Earth. This means that the distance from Mars to the sun is roughly 142 million miles, while the distance from Earth to the sun is about 93 million miles.

From Cape Canaveral, around the moon, and back to earth. Greatest distance from earth during the trip = about 240,000 miles, or roughly -- 0.0056 of the shortest possible distance to Mars, -- 0.0026 of the distance to the sun, -- 0.00000004 of the distance to the nearest star outside the solar system.

The Moon is closer to Earth than Mars. The average distance between Earth and the Moon is about 238,855 miles (384,400 kilometers), while the average distance between Earth and Mars is about 140 million miles (225 million kilometers).

The communication delay between Earth and Mars can range from about 3 minutes to 22 minutes one way, depending on the positions of the two planets in their orbits. This delay is due to the time it takes for signals to travel between the two planets at the speed of light.
The average distance between Mars and the Sun is about 1.5 astronomical units (AU), where 1 AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. This distance can vary because both Mars and Earth have elliptical orbits.
In order of their distance from the sun, the rocky planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
The minimum distance is approximately 54,500,000 km (34 million miles). The farthest the Earth ever gets from the Sun is 152 million kilometers and the nearest Mars ever gets to the Sun is 207 million kilometers.
