<P> The mean semi-major axis has a value of 384,402 km ( 238,856 mi ) . The time - averaged distance between Earth and Moon centers is 385,000.6 km ( 239,228.3 mi ) . The actual distance varies over the course of the orbit of the Moon , from 356,500 km ( 221,500 mi ) at the perigee to 406,700 km ( 252,700 mi ) at apogee , resulting in a differential range of 50,200 km ( 31,200 mi ) . </P>
