At what point is the moon closest to earth?

What is it called when the moon is farthest from Earth?
When the moon is farthest from Earth, it is called "apogee." This term refers to the point in the moon's elliptical orbit where it is at its maximum distance from our planet. Conversely, the point where the moon is closest to Earth is known as "perigee."
What is it called when the moon is closest to earth?
The word "perigee" means the point in an orbit when the satellite is as close as it ever gets to the Earth. The prefix "peri" means "near to", and "gee" is used to refer to the Earth's gravitational mass. The word "perihelion", from "peri" for near and the Greek name of the Sun "Helios", means "as close to the Sun as something ever gets".
