∙ 10y agoDistance from Earth to Saturn?
1277.42 x 10^6 km
1.2 Billion km
When Saturn and Earth are at aphelion (furthest from the Sun) and diametrically opposite each other, the distance can be as great as 1.66 billion 1.66 * 10^9) km
When Saturn is at perihelion and Earth at aphelion and they are on a line on the same side as the Sun the distance can shrink to 1.20 billion (1.20*10^9) km.
The difference between minimum and maximum distance to Saturn is more than 400 million km which is more than three AU (average distance of the Earth to the Sun) it takes light close to half an hour to travel there.

Earth has a thin atmosphere. Saturn has a thick atmosphere.
What is bigger Earth or Saturn?
Basic Answer:Saturn is much larger than Earth, as are all the gas giant planets.How large depends on whether you are comparing the apparent size or diameter, the mass or the volume.1. Linear Size: The width or radius of Saturn is 9 times that of Earth.2 Volume: You could fit 792 Earth's inside of Saturn.3. Mass: Saturn has 95 times more mass than Earth.More information below.Data obtained from NASA. See related links.Saturn and Earth Sizes:Mass of Earth is 5.97 x 10^24 kg.Mass of Saturn is 568 x 10^24 kg.Diameter of Earth is 12,756 kilometers.Diameter of Saturn is 120,536 kilometers.For all Planets:Diameter RatioDiameter ratio of Mercury to Earth (4,879/12756) = .382Diameter ratio of Venus to Earth (12,104/12,756) = .948Diameter ratio of Earth to Earth (12,756/12,756) = 1.00Diameter ratio of Mars to Earth (6,792/12,756) = .532Diameter ratio of Jupiter to Earth (142,984/12,756)= 11.20Diameter ratio of Saturn to Earth (120,536/12,756)= 9.44Diameter ratio of Uranus to Earth (51,118/12,756) = 4.00Diameter ratio of Neptune to Earth (49,528/12,756) = 3.88Diameter ratio of Pluto to Earth (2,390/12,756) = .187Volume RatioVolume ratio of Mercury to Earth (4,879/12756)^3 = .055Volume ratio of Venus to Earth (12,104/12,756)^3 = .851Volume ratio of Earth to Earth (12,756/12,756)^3 = 1.00Volume ratio of Mars to Earth (6,792/12,756)^3 = .150Volume ratio of Jupiter to Earth (142,984/12,756)^3 = 1331Volume ratio of Saturn to Earth (120,536/12,756)^3 = 729Volume ratio of Uranus to Earth (51,118/12,756)^3 = 64Volume ratio of Neptune to Earth (49,528/12,756)^3 = 27Volume ratio of Pluto to Earth (2,390/12,756)^3 = .006Mass RatioMass ratio of Mercury to Earth (.330/5.97) = .055Mass ratio of Venus to Earth (4.87/5.97) = .815Mass ratio of Earth to Earth (5.97/5.97) = 1.000Mass ratio of Mars to Earth (.642/5.97) = .107Mass ratio of Jupiter to Earth (1899/5.97) = 318.090Mass ratio of Saturn to Earth (568 /5.97) = 95.142Mass ratio of Uranus to Earth (86.8/5.97) = 14.539Mass ratio of Neptune to Earth (102 /5.97) = 17.085Mass ratio of Pluto to Earth (.0125/5.97)= .002

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Asteroid belt, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto
What is Saturn's minimum distance from Earth?
At its closest, Earth is about 796 million miles away from Saturn-------------------------------------That is when Saturn and Earth are both on the same side of the Sun and Saturn is at perihelion and Earth is at aphelion. Obviously this happens very rarely and most of the time Saturn and Earth are separated by much more distance with the maximum distance occurring when Saturn and Earth are at opposite sides of the Sun and both at aphelion.
What is the distance between Saturn's moon rhea and earth?
The distance from Saturn to Earth is 821,190,000 miles, or 9 AU (Astronomical Units).
What is the distance from Jupiter Saturn and Uranus' to earth?
its is 234,667 from the earth. :)
Saturn's distance from the sun?
The distance from Saturn to Earth is 821,190,000 miles, or 9 AU (Astronomical Units).
What is the current distance planet Saturn is from earth?
Because the Earth and Saturn both orbit the Sun, the distance between Earth and Saturn varies constantly. I use the Stellarium program to calculate the distance; as of 12:45 PM PDT on April 5, 2009 it is 8.514366 AU.
How can Saturn be seen from earth?
The massive size, the reflectivity and the distance away from earth
Can Saturn be seen from earth?
yes it can, because of its size, reflectivity and distance from earth.
How far is Saturn's moon from Saturn?
The distance from Saturn to the moon of Earth is similar to the distance from Saturn to the Earth. This is about 746 million miles, or 1.2 billion kilometers.
Distance from the earth to Saturn?
At its closest point, the Earth is 744 million miles from Saturn.
How many miles is Saturn from Earth?
The distance between Earth and Saturn is 932 million miles. The circumference of the planet Saturn is 235,300 miles at its equator.
What is Saturns distance from the earth?
Saturn is 9.5 AU from the sun. This means that its approximate distance from Earth, depending on the time of year and the relative position of the two planets from one another, is between 8.5AU and 10.5AU. To be more exact, the minimum distance of Saturn from earth is 1195.5x106 km, and the maximum distance from earth is 1658.5x106 km.
How large is Jupiter seen from Saturn?
From my calculations the distance from Saturn to Jupiter is nearly the same distance it is from Earth to Jupiter. Give or take 50 million miles or so the view of Jupiter from Saturn would be about the same as our view here is on Earth. Good question!!
