This picture is an approximate scale diagram of the Earth-Moon system. The distance between the two is about 30 Earth diameters, though it varies due to the Moon's elliptical orbit. The Earth is about as wide as 3.6 Moons.
Rizzoj created this image as a composite of NASA images obtained from The Blue Marble and Moon articles.
