Earth and moon are small stones moving in orbits around the sun.
Sun, along with the family of tiny pebbles that are bound to it and go wherever it goes,
is one of somewhere between 200 to 400 billion stars in the Milky Way.
Milky Way is one of several billion galaxies visible from earth.
And there are more besides those, that are so far away that our largest present-day telescopes
can't see them.
The moon is in the Milky Way. Just like Earth and everything else in our solar system.
S-E-M in this case stands for "Sun - Earth - Moon", and the relationship between the Moon circling the Earth and both of them being illuminated by the Sun explains the phases of the Moon; we're looking at the Moon from HERE, but the sunlight illuminating the Moon is coming from over THERE. Eclipses can only happen when the Earth and Moon are lined up so precisely that the shadow of one falls on the other. A solar eclipse is where the Moon's shadow touches the Earth; a lunar eclipse is when the Earth's shadow darkens the Moon.
It is the Earth, which is bigger between the moon & the earth.
The sun does not orbit around the moon. The earth orbits the sun and the earths moon (every planet has 1 or more moons) orbits earth.
No. In a lunar eclipse Earth is between the sun and the moon, thus casting a shadow on the moon. When the moon passes between Earth and the sun it is a solar eclipse, to an observer on Earth, the moon eclipses the sun.
The moon is a natural satellite of Earth and is not directly related to the Milky Way galaxy. The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our solar system, including Earth and the moon. The moon orbits Earth, not the Milky Way.
The sun is in the center of the solar system. The Earth orbits the sun, and the moon orbits the Earth.
Our moon is the smallest.
The distance is zero. Along with us, the moon is in the Milky Way Galaxy.
Yes, the Milky Way is our galaxy and it is significantly further away from Earth than the Moon. The Moon is about 384,400 kilometers away from Earth, whereas the Milky Way is estimated to be around 100,000 light-years in diameter.
The moon is in the Milky Way. Just like Earth and everything else in our solar system.
Both are part of the Milky Way.
The Solar System contains the Earth-Moon system. The Milky Way galaxy contains the Solar System. The Virgo supercluster contains the Milky Way galaxy. The Universe contains the Virgo supercluster.
When the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun you get a full moon, not a new Moon which occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun. You could also get a Lunar eclipse.

Yes. The sun and the moon are part of our solar system (sun earth moon mars jupiter saturn etc). Our solar system is part of the milky way galaxy.And to really blow your mind check out the Hubble Deep Field
The moon and the milky way are both astronomical objects which can be seen by looking at the night sky. Other than that, they do not have any particular connection.
