On the plus side, we live at a time where we can still observe the cosmic microwave background radiation and total solar eclipses.
Since the moon’s orbit grows by 3" every year, after a few million years it’ll be far enough away that it won’t completely eclipse the sun anymore.
And in a billion year’s time, the CMB will be redshifted so far into deep radio wavelengths that it’ll be impossible to observe
