YES!!!!
All astronimic objects move closer to and away from each other.
Its explained by Newton;s three Laws of Universal Dynamics. (Gravity).
Masses , Acceleration , Gravity all play against each other . So everything moves closer to and away from each other.

∙ 13y agoWell yes and no. The moon is in an eliptical (not round, more oblong) orbit around the earth. So every 18 to 20 years it is at it's closest point to earth and then begins to move farther away as it travel through it's orbit. We just saw the closest point to earth and now it will mov e away alittle more each day until it begins to start moving closer again.

Is the sun closer to earth or moon?
The Sun is at the same average distance from both the Earth and the Moon because the Earth-Moon system orbits the sun. However, since the Moon orbits around the Earth, it is sometimes closer to the Sun than is the Earth, and sometimes farther. But the difference is negligible since the Sun is more than 380 times as far from Earth as the Moon.

Why is the moon closer to earth then the sun?
The moon is closer to the Earth then the Sun because the Earth's gravity pulls the moon closer. Also trillions of years ago the Earth was very big. Scientists suspect a meteor hit the Earth and a piece of the Earth broke off. That piece is now called the Moon.
