the Moon orbits the Earth, so it's following the Earth around in its orbit around the Sun. Now, we can actually get a little more precise here. The Earth actually takes an elliptical path around the Sun. It ranges in distance from 147 million km to 152 million km and
the farthest away it gets — the moon is 252,088 miles (405,696 km) from Earth. On average, the distance from Earth to the moon is about 238,855 miles (384,400 km). According to NASA, "That means 30 Earth-sized planets could fit in between Earthand the moon."
