Is the moon moving closer to the Earth or farther away?

How many times big the Sun from Moon?
The Sun is about 400 times as big (diameter) as the Moon. It just happens that the Sun is about 400 times as far away as the Moon so that when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun there can be a total eclipse of the Sun. The orbit of the Moon is eleiptical , sometimes close and sometimes farther away from the earth and when the alignment happens at a time when the Moon is farther away, the eclipse is annular (like a ring).

How many times further is the sun away from the moon?
The average distance from the Earth to the Moon is about 238,855 miles (384,400 kilometers), while the average distance from the Earth to the Sun is about 93 million miles (150 million kilometers). This means the Sun is approximately 390 times farther away from the Moon than the Moon is from the Earth. Therefore, the Sun is roughly 390 times the distance from the Moon as it is from the Earth.
