The Moon Distance Calculator shows approximate times for when the Moon is closest to the Earth (perigee) and furthest from the Earth (apogee).
The Moon's actual distances at apogee and perigee can vary by several percent due to the gravitaional perturbations of the Sun on the Moon's eccentric orbit. Over the 5000-year period from -1999 to 3000 (2000 BCE to 3000 CE), the distance of the Moon's perigee varies from 356,355 t...

Before we begin to observe the physical wanderings of the “Queen of Night,” I want to introduce you to the mechanics of the Earth–Moon system. I will cover the relationships between the Earth, Moon, and Sun, the effects that gravity has on the motions of these bodies, and how we us...
supermoonA supermoon is a full moon that occurs when the Moon is at perigee (the closest point to Earth in its orbit). From Earth it appears brighter and larger than it does at apogee (its farthest point). The orbit of the Moon around the Earth-Moon barycentre is not a perfect circl...
The departure impulse transfers the SC to a highly elliptical orbit, the apogee of which is far from the Earth—while providing the required and long-term effect of solar perturbations (with the proper location of the Sun, of course), in which the perigee radius of the orbit increases. ...
