200,000,500,000 Miles
It takes around 3 days for a spacecraft to travel from Earth to the Moon. This involves overcoming the distance of approximately 384,400 kilometers (238,855 miles) between the two celestial bodies.
Florida is closer. The moon is about 20 times further away than any two points on earth are.
The distance from Earth to the Moon varies, but on average it is about 384,400 kilometers.
The Earth and moon are connected through gravitational forces. The moon orbits the Earth due to the gravitational pull between the two bodies. This connection causes phenomena such as tides on Earth, which are influenced by the position of the moon relative to our planet.
There will be a total of five in 2014. The first two were in January. The next two will be on Aug. 10 and Sept. 9. The August full moon will be the closest full moon this year, with the distance separating the Earth and moon at only 222,000 miles.
Paris. The moon is about 220,000 miles away from Earth. Earth's circumference is about 25,000 miles. Paris is much closer to New York (3,636 miles) then the moon (238,857 miles). No distance between two places on Earth is greater than the distance to the moon. The circumference of the Earth is only 24,901 miles so that's pretty much the furthest you can go between two points on Earth. The distance to the moon as mentioned is over 238,857 miles.

I'll let you figure out the equation: Two Lego blocks make an inch. The moon is roughly 250,000 miles from the Earth. There are 5,280 feet in a mile, and 12 inches in a foot, so... 2 blocks x 12 inches x 5,280 feet x 250,000 miles = your answer

Here are two bodies which are circling each other in space - a near perfect model of the gravitational attraction that one body has on another body. It is not just the moon that is revolving about the earth but that the moon has enough mass to cause the earth, in turn, to move in a circular orbit. It turns out that the two bodies orbit about a common center of gravity which is referred to as the barycenter . It can be shown that the distance of the center of each body from the barycenter is inversely proportional to their masses. In the moon/earth system this locates the barycenter about 2,900 miles from the center of the earth (the radius being about 3,960 miles). The moon is about 236,000 miles in the opposite direction from the barycenter (dividing 2,900 by 236,000 shows the earth to have 81 times the mass of the moon).

the moon's radius is about one quarter the radius of earth The moon has no atmosphere and the earth does
The moon is very much smaller than the earth. The moon's atmosphere is thinner than the earth's.
The distance between the Sun and the Earth is about 93,000,000 miles. The distance between the Moon and the Earth is about 250,000 miles. The distance between the Moon and the Earth is thus shorter.
