The average radius of the Moon's orbit around Earth is approximately 384,400 kilometers (about 238,855 miles). This distance can vary slightly due to the Moon's elliptical orbit, ranging from about 363,300 kilometers (225,623 miles) at its closest point (perigee) to about 405,500 kilometers (251,966 miles) at its farthest point (apogee).

Shape of earth and moons orbit?

Do moons and asteroids orbit the sun?
Asteroids orbit the sun. Moons orbit planets and planets orbit the sun. So you could say the moons orbit the sun. However, moons are kept in their orbits by the gravity of their planet and planets are kept in orbit by the gravity of the sun. So in that sense, moons do not orbit the sun.
