How many astronomical units are satellites and asteroids away from the sun?

0

There are as many answers to your question as there are sattelites and asteroids. An astronomical unit (AU) is the mean distance from the Sun to the earth. Our moon is a satellite and so its distance from the Sun in AU’s is about one because it is fairly near the earth. Even at that, it varies by nearly a million miles every month. If you find the distance in miles of a body from the Sun and divide it by 93 million, you will be very near to your answer. Does this help?
