The average distance between Earth and the moon is 238,855 miles. Nearly 240,000 miles separate Earth and the moon. That's the average distance between the two celestial bodies, according to NASA. It's a long way from here to there, but with advances in technology, humans have been able to explore the moon. In July 1969, the Apollo 11 mission marked the first time a human being set foot on the moon.
