149 597 870 691 ± 30 metres A.U. (about 150 million kilometres or 93 million miles)The astronomical unit (AU or au or a.u. or sometimes ua) is a unit of length nearly equal to the semi-major axis of Earth's orbit around the Sun.

One year on Mercury = 87.97 Earth days.

Venus takes 224.7 Earth days to orbit around the sun.

"Saturn has a large number of moons. The precise figure is uncertain as the orbiting chunks of ice in Saturn's rings are all technically moons, and it is difficult to draw a distinction between a large ring particle and a tiny moon. As of 2006, a total of 56 individual moons have been identified, along with 3 unconfirmed moons that could be small dusk clumps in the rings. Many of them quite small. Seven of the moons are massive enough to have collapsed into spheroids under their own gravitation."

Titan, Rhea, Dione, Iapetus, Tethys, Encaladus and Mimas are Saturn's major moons.
