Why would impact the core?
Comment on A handy chart
Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 days agoThe moon is slowly migrating away from the earth into higher orbits (due to the earth spinning faster than the Moon’s orbit), eventually it could escape with a gravity assist from Mars or Venus. It’ll have tidal consequences for Earth, but not like catastrophic (though I suspect it might allow the earth’s core to cool a bit faster, which could be the beginning of the end of life on earth).

Friction heat from tidal forces.

But how many millions of years is that?

It is lots of them.
