Which is biggest between Sun Moon and Earth?
In order of size from largest to smallest Sun > Earth > Moon. If we quote the radius of these objects. Sun ; 695,700 km Earth ; 6,365 km Moon ; 1,736 km From these figures you can see that the Sun is over 100 times bigger than the Earth, and the Earth is nearly 4 times greater than the Moon. The reason why the Sun and Moon appear to the same size is because the Moon is much nearer to the Earth , than the Sun. It is a property of optics that the further away an object is, then the smaller it appears. From the Earth;- Sun's distance is ~92,000,000 miles Moon's distance is ~242,000 miles. From the above radii you can calculate the volume of each object. By using the Gravitational Constant the masses of these objects can be calculated.

So that makes the moon a natural satellite!
