The distance varies because the moon travels around Earth in an elliptical orbit. At perigee, the point at which the moon is closest to Earth, the distance is approximately 360,000 kilometers. At apogee, the point at which the moon is farthest from Earth, the distance is approximately 405,000 kilometers.

Answer:

Distance to the Moon

Before Apollo 11 astronauts Neil A. Armstrong and Edwin E. “Buzz” Aldrin, Jr. stepped on the

moon on July 20, 1969, people had studied the moon by eye, telescope and images from

spacecraft. As long as people have looked at the moon, they have wondered how far away it is

from Earth. The average distance to the moon is 382,500 kilometers. The distance varies

because the moon travels around Earth in an elliptical orbit. At perigee, the point at which the

moon is closest to Earth, the distance is approximately 360,000 kilometers. At apogee, the point

at which the moon is farthest from Earth, the distance is approximately 405,000 kilometers.
