Well, not quite.
The moon moves away from the planet Earth about 1cm each year. In one million years it will have thus moved outwards from the Earth 1000 kilometres.
This rate is always accelerating and the moment will come when the moon will free itself from the Earth's gravity and our planet will take up a different orbit around the sun.
That won't be funny.
