while the earth is orbiting the sun the moon is orbiting the earth
The moon is said to be at its Perigee when at its closest point to the Earth, Apogee when at its furthest point. Perigee and Apogee can also be used for other objects when orbiting about the Earth. If we talk about objects orbiting the sun (such as the planets) we use the term Perihelion and Aphelion (the helion part coming from the latin name of helios for the sun). If the perigee coincides with a full moon, we get a `supermoon`. The moon is at its largest circumference as it is at its closest, and is also full.
The force of gravity causes the moon to orbit the Earth, and the Earth to orbit the sun.
The point in a body's orbit when it is farthest from its primary is apoapsis. For the specific case of a body orbiting Earth, you can also use the term apogee.
Apogee refers to the point in an object's orbit when it is farthest from the Earth, while perigee refers to the point when it is closest. These terms are often used in the context of celestial bodies such as moons and satellites orbiting Earth.

True. Perigee is the point in the moon's orbit when it is closest to Earth.
One moon is orbiting Earth and that is called The Moon.
The moon. The earth is in orbit around the sun, but the moon goes with it, orbiting the earth directly and orbiting the sun indirectly.
There is no moon on Earth, but there is one orbiting it; we call it the moon.
No, it is orbiting our Earth, which is orbiting our Sun.
The moon is said to be at its Perigee when at its closest point to the Earth, Apogee when at its furthest point. Perigee and Apogee can also be used for other objects when orbiting about the Earth. If we talk about objects orbiting the sun (such as the planets) we use the term Perihelion and Aphelion (the helion part coming from the latin name of helios for the sun). If the perigee coincides with a full moon, we get a `supermoon`. The moon is at its largest circumference as it is at its closest, and is also full.
The force of gravity.
The largest satellite orbiting the Earth is the Moon.
-- orbiting the Earth -- coasting on a trajectory between the Earth and the Moon -- orbiting the Moon -- the surface of the Moon That's IT ... the complete list.
There is no moon IN the Earth. There is one moon ORBITING AROUND Earth.
The force of gravity causes the moon to orbit the Earth, and the Earth to orbit the sun.
