I'm not sure what you are seeing this evening. Venus is about 40 degrees ahead of the Moon. At this moment, 8:45 PM in northern California, Venus is about to set, while the Moon is still high in the western sky. Saturn will be rising very shortly, but is nowhere CLOSE to the Moon. No other planets are visible this evening.
There are two relatively bright stars fairly close to the Moon; Hamal and Sheratan. Perhaps you are seeing one of those.
The closest planet to the Moon is Earth. The Moon is Earth's natural satellite and is closest to our planet in terms of distance.
what is the second closest planet from the moon
A moon, by definition, is not a planet. The closest planet to our sun is Mercury, followed by Venus and the Earth, then Mars.
if i remember correctly, Pluto was the closest planet to the size of earths moon, but now cause Pluto is so small, it has now been classified as just rock, and not as a planet anymoreMercury
The moon that revolves around the earth is not a star, it is part of the earth that was thrown off into space when the earth was hit by a large asteroid early in its development, about 30 million years after the earth first was formed. The closest star to the Earth is our Sun, it is a star and it is called Sol.
Earth is the closest planet to the moon and Venus follows as the second closest planet to the moon

No. Earth is technically the closest planet to the moon. Mars is the closest planet to a moon, with Phobos being only 9.4Mm away from Mars. Earth's moon is an average distance of 370Mm from Earth.
No. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun. The moon is not a planet and is the closest object in space to Earth.
Earth is the closest planet the moon, as it is our planet's moon and orbits Earth.

The closest planet to the Moon today is Mars. It is currently not physically close to the Moon but is closest to it in terms of its position in the sky.
THE MOON ISN'T A PLANET IT'S A MOON The closest planet to the Sun is Mercury.
The Earth.
There is no such planet known. In our solar system, the planet whose moon is closest in size to the planet which it orbits is none other than our own planet Earth. However, the Moon is still much smaller than the Earth. Pluto has a Moon that's big, but Pluto isn't a "planet" now, of course.
