The Moon is farther from the Sun, roughly the same average distance from the Sun as the Earth. The Sun is nearly 400 times farther from the Earth and Moon (150 million kilometers) than the Moon is from the Earth (about 384,000 kilometers).
The center of the Earth is around 240 thousand miles away from the center of the Moon. The earth is around 93 millionmiles away from the sun. Therefore, the Moon is much, much farther away from the Sun than it is from the Earth.
Perihelion - Aphelion is when the Earth is furthest from the Sun.

Easily. The furthest distance from the Earth to the Moon is about 406,000 km. So the diameter of the orbit is around 812,000 km. The diameter of the Sun is 1,392,000 km. So the orbit of the Moon would fit inside the Sun with room to space.
Neptune...
If you are referring to Earth, the sun is furthest at the summer solstice (June 21st).
The furthest point away from the moon is its apogee, which is the farthest distance in its orbit around Earth. This distance is approximately 253,000 miles (405,500 kilometers) from the moon.
Moon is closest (¼ million miles), then the Sun (93 million miles), then the stars are the furthest (trillions of miles).
The point in the Moon's orbit where it is furthest from the Earth is called the apogee.
The 'furthest planet away from the Sun' is not one of those. Neptune is the planet which is furthest from the Sun. Of the ones you ask about, Jupiter is the "further". The sequence, moving outwards from the Sun is # Mercury # Venus # Earth # Mars # Jupiter # Saturn # Uranus # Neptune
The Moon is closest to Earth out of the options provided. The average distance from the Moon to Earth is about 238,855 miles, while the Sun is approximately 93 million miles away. Clouds are much closer to Earth's surface than either the Moon or the Sun, typically forming within the lowest few miles of the atmosphere.

The moon is said to be at its Perigee when at its closest point to the Earth, Apogee when at its furthest point. Perigee and Apogee can also be used for other objects when orbiting about the Earth. If we talk about objects orbiting the sun (such as the planets) we use the term Perihelion and Aphelion (the helion part coming from the latin name of helios for the sun). If the perigee coincides with a full moon, we get a `supermoon`. The moon is at its largest circumference as it is at its closest, and is also full.
