The moon stays close to Earth due to gravity. The gravitational force between Earth and the moon keeps them in orbit around each other. This balance of gravitational forces prevents the moon from drifting away from Earth.
The moon is so close to the earth because the gravity of earth pulls it in which also causes the tides. Some Scientists say that earth is pushing out and leaving the earth a couple centimeters every year.
The moon's distance from Earth varies because its orbit is elliptical. On average, the moon is about 238,855 miles (384,400 kilometers) away from Earth. At its closest point, called perigee, the moon can come as close as about 225,623 miles (363,104 kilometers) from Earth.
The white planet close to Earth is the Moon. It is Earth's only natural satellite, and its surface appears white due to the reflection of sunlight off its rocky, dust-covered surface.
The moon is much close to the Earth and therefore is shorter to fly to.
no its an illusion
The moon is already close to the earth
Not really.
No, is the simple answer. You have to remember that the orbit of the moon is always alternating from close to far. Not by much but it does vary.

It doesn't - the moon's proximity to Earth has no bearing on Earth's temperature - the Sun does that.

It was not especially close; the perigee distance is 363,104 km. The Moon orbits the Earth in an elliptical path, and it comes that close to Earth every month. But the orbital cycle isn't on the same schedule as the phases of the Moon. The Moon happens to be exactly full at the very same time as the Moon reaches perigee only once every 28 years or so.
The moon's average distance from earth is listed as 238,855.7 miles (384,401 km).

Yes. The moon is the only natural body close enough to Earth to orbit it.
We picture the moon as traveling in an orbit around the earth, so we usually talk aboutthe moon's closest and farthest distance from the earth.Point in moon's orbit farthest from earth: "Apogee"Point in moon's orbit closest to earth: "Perigee"For the remainder of 2009 ...The moon will be at Apogee on September 28, October 25, November 22, December 20,The moon will be at Perigee on September 16, October 13, November 7, December 4.
