Objects in space usually travel in an elliptical orbit. In astronomy, an apsis is the point of greatest distance of the elliptical orbit of an astronomical object from its center of attraction, which is generally the center of mass of the system. More common term is APOGEE for fartherest distance of the moon from the Earth. Perigee is the name of the closest distance. For orbits around the Sun, the word used is perihelion and aphelion.
