We will measure the distance between the Sun and the Moon by considering the Parallax and also by considering the Mercury Sun distance. The goal is to utilize the observed data. The way that we have used in this paper is based on two observational data in Iran (Mashhad 36°31′ N, 59°48′ E) and Canada (Yukon Territory 69°27′ N, 33°2′ E). It is required to mention that in Mercury transition 2016, I had personally collected the first place, Mashhad. In measuring the distance between Mercury and the Sun we have utilized the trigonometry terms and the related formulas. Using all the collected data and studying on the contacts of the mercury, has helped us to reach the best results.
