The stars. It takes light (at a speed of 300,000 km/second) a little over a second to come from the Moon to Earth. At the same speed, it takes light about 4.2 years to reach us from the nearest star (excluding the Sun), called Proxima Centauri.

Easily. The furthest distance from the Earth to the Moon is about 406,000 km. So the diameter of the orbit is around 812,000 km. The diameter of the Sun is 1,392,000 km. So the orbit of the Moon would fit inside the Sun with room to space.

When the Moon is farthest from the Earth this point is called .?

The moon is said to be at its Perigee when at its closest point to the Earth, Apogee when at its furthest point. Perigee and Apogee can also be used for other objects when orbiting about the Earth. If we talk about objects orbiting the sun (such as the planets) we use the term Perihelion and Aphelion (the helion part coming from the latin name of helios for the sun). If the perigee coincides with a full moon, we get a `supermoon`. The moon is at its largest circumference as it is at its closest, and is also full.
