"Perigee".
When the moon is closest to the Earth's orbit, it is called "perigee." During this time, the moon appears larger and brighter in the sky compared to its average distance from Earth. The opposite of perigee, when the moon is farthest from Earth, is called "apogee."
The point at which the Moon is closest to Earth is known as the perigee. This occurs approximately once a month when the Moon reaches its closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit. This phenomenon is called a "perigee-syzygy."
True. Perigee is the point in the moon's orbit when it is closest to Earth.
Earth is the closest planet to the moon and Venus follows as the second closest planet to the moon

The closest natural object to Earth is the moon.
The Earth is the closest body to the moon.
When the moon is farthest from Earth, it is called "apogee." This term refers to the point in the moon's elliptical orbit where it is at its maximum distance from our planet. Conversely, the point where the moon is closest to Earth is known as "perigee."
