The moon is big enough to have its own gravitational field, so it really can't fall apart unless something really spectacular happens. It'd require a HUGE impact/explosion to overcome that gravitational effect to the point where the moon would actually split into separate pieces. Bad, bad news for us, the next door neighbours.

-- If gravity fails, then the world does not fall. It leaves its orbit around the sun

and continues sailing off in a straight line, away from the vicinity of the sun.

Gravity is not responsible for holding the world up. That is the job of the twelve

giant tortoises (land turtles), each with a pillar standing on its back, with the tops

of the pillars supporting the corners of the Earth. You could look it up. Scientists

have not yet determined what the tortoises are standing on. They want to keep

working on it, but the government is going to cut their research funding, so we

may never know the answer.

It's impossible for the sky to fall down.
