Distance from the Moon: nominal closest approach

All 133 objects from Close Earth are listed here. The nominal three-dimensional object-to-Moon minimum is searched independently within 30 days before and after the established geocentric Earth-minimum time. The coarse scan uses three-hour steps inside five lunar distances and progressively larger six-, twelve-, or twenty-four-hour steps for objects farther outside the Moon's orbit, where Earth distance already supplies a strong lower bound; the best interval is then continuously refined. Moon and Earth positions come from the local DE440 kernel; object positions use the nominal local orbit. LD is the mean Earth-Moon distance. The time offset is measured from the established Earth-minimum time.

What “not validated” means: every available calculated Moon minimum and variant envelope is shown, regardless of validation. The independently propagated nominal orbit is checked against the established Earth distance at the established Earth-minimum time; the allowed difference is the larger of 0.01 AU or 10% of that established distance. If that check fails, the values remain visible but are unvalidated estimates rather than confirmed precision. This does not mean that the object has no lunar encounter or is too far from the Moon. Hover or focus each validation status for the exact established value, calculated value, difference, and allowed tolerance. The Variant envelope is the same full variant spread shown in Close Earth at the common Earth-minimum epoch; it is not a separately optimized lunar-distance envelope. 54 of 133 entries currently have a validated Moon minimum.
