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.)
Just like the time required for any other trip to anywhere, that depends on your travel speed.
The moon's average distance from the earth is 238,000 miles.
-- If you're walking briskly, at 4 miles per hour, you need 2,479 days (6.8 years) to cover the distance.
-- Driving at 60 mph, you need 165 days.
-- Flying a commercial jetliner at 400 mph, it would take 24.8 days.
-- At the speed of sound, 760 mph, it would take 13 days.
-- The Apollo moon-landing missions took 3 days to reach the moon.
-- Radio signals or flashes of light, at 186,282 mph, take 1.3 seconds to get there (0.0000148 day).
The moon will reach the point of "perigee" in its orbit
on the following days in 2010:
-- January 1
-- January 30
-- February 27
-- March 28
-- April 24
-- May 20
-- June 15
-- July 13
-- August 10
-- September 8
-- October 6
-- November 3
-- November 30
-- December 25
The Apollo spacecraft took three days to go from the earth to the moon.
Depends on how fast you are going and the space craft you are going in
depends on what mode of travel you take, of course.
Depends on the speed at which your going.
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.

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.
yes satellite is between moon and earth. moon can see a satellite only for ten hours in a day
The same as between the Moon and the Earth. The distance from the clouds to the surface of the Earth is insignificant, compared to the Moon-Earth distance.The same as between the Moon and the Earth.

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 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
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 average distance between the earth and moon is : 384,401 kilometres. Average meaning it changes from time to time
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.
distance between the earth and the sun.
The distance between the centre of the earth and the centre of the moon is 384,403 km.
The mean distance between the Earth and the moon is 0.00256957312 AU
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
The distance from Earth to the sun is much greater than from Earth to the moon. It is not possible that the sun would be between Earth and the moon.
