Where on earth is closest to the moon?
The Moon orbits over the tropical areas, within about 28 degrees of latitude north or south. The point on the Earth which is absolutely the CLOSEST to the Moon would be the point when the Moon reaches its "perigee". But that point moves as the Moon orbits the Earth.
At what point is the moon closest to earth?
The point at which the Moon is closest to Earth is known as the perigee. This occurs approximately once a month when the Moon reaches its closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit. This phenomenon is called a "perigee-syzygy."
What word is used to describe the moon at its farthest point from Earth?
"Apogee" is the term used to describe the point in the moon's orbit when it is farthest from Earth.
Why is the moon closest to the earth?
The moon is closest to Earth when it is at its perigee, which is the point in its orbit where it is nearest to our planet. This is due to the gravitational forces between Earth and the moon affecting their distance.
What objects is closest to earth in all three systems?

Name the point at which the moon is closest to earth?
Perigee
What word is used to describe the moon at its farthest point from Earth?
"Apogee" is the term used to describe the point in the moon's orbit when it is farthest from Earth.
Does the point on earth farthest from the moon has a high tide?
Yes. High tides happen on the point on earth closest to the moon, and the opposite side of the earth.
Why is the moon closest to the earth?

When is the sun and the earths moon at their closest point?
That would be at the moment of the New Moon closest to perihelion, which happens to be the one closest to New Years day or January 2. The moon is then in between the Earth and sun, while the Earth/Moon system is closest to the sun.
Is it true that the point on earth that is closest to the moon has a high tide?

What planet is closest to the moon?
Earth is the closest planet to the moon and Venus follows as the second closest planet to the moon
