Is the moon the closest object in space to earth?   The moon is the closest natural object to earth that is in space. But there are some other considerations. There are lots of bits of space debris (pieces of rock) thatâ¦ fall on earth all the time, and some swing by and don't actually fall out of orbit but are just deflected.
Distance to the Moon Before Apollo 11 astronauts Neil A. Armstrong and Edwin E. âBuzzâ Aldrin, Jr. stepped on the moon on July 20, 1969, people had studied the moon by eye, telescope and images from spacecraft. As long as people have looked at the moon, they have wondered how far away it is from Earth. The average distance to the moon is 382,500 kilometers. The distance varies because the moon travels around Earth in an elliptical orbit. At perigee, the point at which the moon is closest to Earth, the distance is approximately 360,000 kilometers. At apogee, the point at which the moon is farthest from Earth, the distance is approximately 405,000 kilometers.
