Are the moon and the sun the same distance from earth?
No, the moon and the sun are not the same distance from Earth. The average distance from the Earth to the moon is about 238,855 miles, while the average distance from the Earth to the sun is about 93 million miles.
Why do the moon and sun seem the same distance from earth?
because to earth and moon are like next door neighbors so that it feel like the same distance but its not.
Does the moon keep the same distance from the earth?
No, the moon's distance from Earth varies due to its elliptical orbit. The orbit shape causes the moon to be closer at some points (perigee) and farther at others (apogee). This phenomenon results in the "supermoon" and "micromoon" events.
Why does it take the same time as the light from the sun to reach earth as it does for the moon?
It doesn't always do that. At some points in the Moon's orbit around the Earth, the distance from the Sun to the Moon and Earth is the same. At other points, the Moon is either closer or farther away from the Sun. But either way the distance between the Moon and Earth is so much smaller than the distance between the Sun and the Moon, that the difference in time becomes really, really tiny in comparison.
Is the gravitational force of earth and moon the same?
No, essentially mass = gravity the earths mass is roughly 81 * that of the moon, if you stood at the same distance from both, the force on you from the earth would be 81 * that of the moon.
Are the moon and the sun the same distance from earth?
No, the moon and the sun are not the same distance from Earth. The average distance from the Earth to the moon is about 238,855 miles, while the average distance from the Earth to the sun is about 93 million miles.
What is the distance between earth and heaven?
In terms of physical measurement, the distance between Earth and heaven is not known as heaven is considered a spiritual or metaphysical realm, not a physical location in space. Different belief systems and cultures have their own interpretations of where or what heaven is.
Why do the moon and sun seem the same distance from earth?

What do the earth and the moon have the same distance from?
each other
Are the moon and the sun the same distance from the earth?
No, the sun is much further away from the earth than the moon.
How much closer is the moon to the sun?
The moon's average distance from the sun is exactly the same as the earth's average distance from the sun.
Is the moon or mars closter to the sun?
The moon is closer to the sun. Since the moon orbits Earth, it is always about the same distance from the sun as Earth is.
How far away is the sun in miles?
It varies - the moon orbits the Earth so the distance will change depending on Earth's distance from the sun as well as the moon's distance from the Earth. The minimum distance from the moon to the sun is when the Earth is closest to the sun and the moon is in new moon phase (meaning its closer to the sun than the Earth). The distance from the moon to the sun is: Earth's distance at perihelion - moon's distance from Earth at apogee. This works out to 146,692,370 km. The maximum distance from the moon to the sun is when the Earth is farthest from the sun and the moon is in full moon phase. The distance from the moon to the sun is Earth's distance at aphelion + moon's distance from Earth at apogee. This works out to 150,503,400 km.
Is the distance of the moon from the earth the same as it complete the revolution?
The distance between Earth and Moon changes. Like any object going in an orbit around another object, the Moon moves around Earth in an ellipse, not in an exact circle.
How far the moon is from the sun?
same average distance as the Earth : 93,000,000 miles
Why does the moon and earth have the same astronomical units?
If you mean the same distance from the sun, it is because the moon orbits Earth nearly 400 times closer than Earth orbits the sun. This is less than the variation in Earth's distance from the sun due to its orbital eccentricity.
