The distance between two points $P_1(x_1, y_1, z_1)$ and $P_2(x_2, y_2, z_2)$ in 3D space is given by the formula $\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2 + (z_2 - z_1)^2}$. Substituting the given points $P_1 = (2, 2, -1)$ and $P_2 = (-1, -3, 2)$ into this formula yields $\sqrt{(-1 - 2)^2 + (-3 - 2)^2 + (2 - (-1))^2} = \sqrt{9 + 25 + 9} = \sqrt{43}$.
