Our only moon, which is called `The Moon`. Our moons average distance from the Earth is 384,399 km (238,854 miles).
Apart from the moon being an astronomical body it is very unlike the earth.
The gases surrounding the Earth or any astronomical body is called the atmosphere.
what is unique about the astronomical body of planet Mercury and why is it important in the universe?When was the planet Mercury discovered?
The rotation of the earth causes night and day.
None have. The only astronomical body outside of Earth that people have visited is the moon. The nearest planet is something like 200 times FARTHER than that.
Luna, the Earth's moon.
The Magnetosphere. Other layers of the Atmosphere include (In order from closest to farthest from Earth) the Troposphere, the Stratosphere, the Mesosphere, the Thermosphere, and last (but not least) the Exosphere.
The Earth is the closest body to the moon.
Closest big one - all our man made satellites are closer.
One astronomical unit (AU) is the distance between the Earth and the Sun.

There are no "planets" between the Earth and its Moon (the closest astronomical body to our planet). Earth has no natural satellites other than the Moon, although some Sun-orbiting asteroids (notably 3753 Cruithne) have orbits that intersect the Earth's orbit and have moon-like resonances with Earth and other inner planets.There are two planets whose orbits are between the Earth and the Sun : Mercury and Venus.

Yes. The moon is the only natural body close enough to Earth to orbit it.
