The answer is different depending on who you ask. Some astronomer say the moon moves about one centimeter away from Earth each year. Others say about an inch to an inch and a half.
When will the moon drift away from the earth?
The moon is already drifting away from Earth. The other plants, and the sun, are pulling it closer to them. The moon moves a little less then a centimeter a year, but it is moving further away. Sooner than later, we might be moonless!

The moonlight you see in the night won't be so bright. Which is sad since I like to see the pretty moon every night. :(

Will the earth and the moon join?

Is our moon always going to be there?
No, the moon is slowly moving away from the earth. Scientists have proven that the moon is moving away at roughly, around an inch each year, the situation is a result of tidal forces. in millions of years the result will be more than noticable the tides of our oceans will be less wavy and it will not be possible to have a complete solar eclipse. sooner or later the moon will completely fade away.
