Earth and the Moon. Background 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 km. 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 km. At apogee, the point at which the Moon is farthest from Earth, the distance is approxi-mately 405,000 km. Distance from Earth to the Moon for a given date can be obtained by asking a local
The Moon orbits Earth in the prograde direction and completes one revolution relative to the stars in approximately 27.322 days (a sidereal month). Earth and the Moon orbit about their barycentre (common center of mass), which lies about 7006460000000000000â 4600 km from Earth's center (about 34 of the radius of Earth). On average, the Moon is at a distance of about 7008385000000000000â 385000 km from Earth's center, which corresponds to about 60 Earth radii.
