The moon that revolves around the earth is not a star, it is part of the earth that was thrown off into space when the earth was hit by a large asteroid early in its development, about 30 million years after the earth first was formed. The closest star to the Earth is our Sun, it is a star and it is called Sol.

The moon is not a planet. Venus is the closest planet to Earth.

The moon is not considered a planet; no moon to any planet is. The closest planets to Earth are Mars and Venus. Mars gets as close as 77 million kilometers and Venus 42 million kilometers.

The moon is not a planet, since it is not in direct orbit around the sun. It is in direct orbit around a planet (earth) which is then in orbit around the sun. It is the closest celestial body to the earth.

The Moon is not a star. The Sun is a star, but the Moon is a "moon" or satellite of Earth.

The closest star to the Moon is our Sun.
