Earth is closest to the sun every year in early January, when itâs winter for the Northern Hemisphere. Weâre farthest away from the sun in early July, during our Northern Hemisphere summer. Earth is about 3 million miles (5 million km) closer to the sun in early January than it is in early July. Thatâs not a huge change in distance. Itâs not enough of a change to cause the seasons on Earth. On January 4, 2017, Earth at its closest point swings to within 91,404,322 miles (147,100,993 km) of the sun.
