The Moon is from 356 to 406 thousand kilometers from Earth. The time to travel between them depends on the propulsion system used. Using the smallest craft, the smallest amount of fuel and the minimum number of people, it took three days to get from the Moon to Earth in the 1970s. But using powerful electric rail-guns, sending back only industrial products to low Earth orbit would be done in under 2 days. Laser light from the moon takes less than two seconds to travel to Earth. (More or less depending on where the Moon is.)
Paris. The moon is about 220,000 miles away from Earth. Earth's circumference is about 25,000 miles. Paris is much closer to New York (3,636 miles) then the moon (238,857 miles). No distance between two places on Earth is greater than the distance to the moon. The circumference of the Earth is only 24,901 miles so that's pretty much the furthest you can go between two points on Earth. The distance to the moon as mentioned is over 238,857 miles.
No - the Earth's shadow (at the distance of the Moon) is much larger than the diameter of the Moon.No - the Earth's shadow (at the distance of the Moon) is much larger than the diameter of the Moon.No - the Earth's shadow (at the distance of the Moon) is much larger than the diameter of the Moon.No - the Earth's shadow (at the distance of the Moon) is much larger than the diameter of the Moon.
That would be the Earth's distance from the Sun (at aphelion) plus the Earth-Moon distance. The latter is insignificant.
We would have to know the masses of the Earth and the Moon to figure that out. But I will tell you this: The minimum work done is the energy needed to get the spaceship to the point between the Earth and the Moon where the gravitational influences of the two celestial objects cancel each other. After it passes this point, the spaceship will be pulled towards the Moon by the Moon's gravitational attraction, thus eliminating the need to push the spaceship further.
A "gibbous" Moon has between 51% and 99% of the illuminated side of the Moon visible from Earth. Just to be precise; the Moon is always 50% illuminated. The Moon is a rocky ball, half in sunlight and half in darkness. As the Moon orbits the Earth, the same face of the Moon is always visible. From the Earth, we see "phases" of the Moon as the Moon orbits the Earth. At the new moon phase, the illuminated half of the Moon is the "far side" of the Moon; at the full, the illuminated half is the "near side".
In terms of physical measurement, the distance between Earth and heaven is not known as heaven is considered a spiritual or metaphysical realm, not a physical location in space. Different belief systems and cultures have their own interpretations of where or what heaven is.
It occurs approximately January 4 every year, depending on where the moon is in its orbit around the earth (it pulls the earth towards it slightly so the minimum earth-sun distance can vary from January 2nd to 6th).
The average distance between the earth and moon is : 384,401 kilometres. Average meaning it changes from time to time
The average distance between Earth and its moon is 238,000 miles, approximately.
The distance between the moon and the earth is 384,403,000 meters.The distance from earth to the moon is -Apogee - 405,696,000 metresPerigee - 363,104,000 metres
The Earth is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun, with a minimum distance (perihelion) of 147,098,074 km, and a maximum distance (aphelion) of 152,097,701 km. The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around the Earth, with a minimum distance (perigee) of 363,104 km and a maximum distance (apogee) of 405,696 km.
It varies - the moon orbits the Earth so the distance will change depending on Earth's distance from the sun as well as the moon's distance from the Earth. The minimum distance from the moon to the sun is when the Earth is closest to the sun and the moon is in new moon phase (meaning its closer to the sun than the Earth). The distance from the moon to the sun is: Earth's distance at perihelion - moon's distance from Earth at apogee. This works out to 146,692,370 km. The maximum distance from the moon to the sun is when the Earth is farthest from the sun and the moon is in full moon phase. The distance from the moon to the sun is Earth's distance at aphelion + moon's distance from Earth at apogee. This works out to 150,503,400 km.
The distance between the Moon and Earth is larger than the Sun's radius. The average distance between the Moon and Earth is about 384,400 km while the Sun's radius is about 696,340 km.
The distance between the centre of the earth and the centre of the moon is 384,403 km.
The next time the moon is at perigee (closest approach to the Earth) is Dec 4 14:13 then it will be 363478 km away.There is a calculator at:http://www.fourmilab.ch/earthview/pacalc.html
