No, it is not true that Earth is closest to the sun in August. Earth reaches its closest point to the sun, known as perihelion, around early January. In contrast, Earth is farthest from the sun, or at aphelion, in early July. Therefore, Earth is not closest to the sun in August.
Except for meteors, The Moon is, generally, the closest natural object in space to the Earth. Usually. On rare occasions, small asteroids zip by the Earth somewhat closer to Earth than the Moon is - and occasionally, a LOT closer. There was an asteroid in late 2009 that passed by the Earth at a distance of less than 100,000 miles. In 2029 and again in 2037, the asteroid Apophis will pass by the Earth at a distance of under 20,000 miles. If we include meteoroids, then no. Every day, the Earth is struck by tens of thousands of asteroids, and there are probably hundreds of thousands more that missed by some fairly small distance.
No it not true. He just purchased a car last month
no its August 4th :D
No.
yes
False. Earth is actually closest to the sun during the month of January.

true
Yes, that is true.
Yes, that is true.
False. Earth is actually closest to the sun in early January, a position known as perihelion.
True. Perigee is the point in the moon's orbit when it is closest to Earth.
True. The troposphere is the lowermost layer of Earth's atmosphere, and it is the layer closest to the Earth's surface where all weather events occur.

false the moon is not a star
The Earth's perihelion (closest point to the Sun) is in January, usually around January 4th. The distance is about 147.5 million kilometers, compared to the farthest distance of 152.6 million kilometers in July.
When Earth is closest to the sun the Southern Hemisphere receives more of the sun's rays, making it hotter, or summer there, and winteri nthe north.
