Because the planets in our solar system are always moving in orbit around our Sun, the distance to Uranus is constantly changing. When Earth and Uranus are at their closest point together, on the same side of the Sun, they are about 1,604,318,281 miles apart. When they are at their furthest point from each other, they are about 1,961,855,265 miles apart.
