One of the great mysteries of special research is the old story that one day, the moon will hit the earth, To illustrate that principle, from the experts NASA tell whether that event will happen or not,
As the report published on the Nat Geo website in Spanish explains, the Solar System has maintained a balance between the solar bodies that make it up, preventing the planets and their satellites from colliding with each other.
the above is the reason Scientists at the US space agency are not worried about the idea of our natural satellite hitting the planet, However, the possibility exists, although it is a remote possibility.
it is possible but not likely
Tony Cook, Professor of Physics at Aberystwyth University, assures that there is no danger of the Moon suddenly colliding with the Earth: “There is a balance between the Earth and the Moon. It has an equilibrium point called the barycenter and the two bodies revolve around it.,
Cook is correct, because the Moon has a stable orbit around the planet. For at least 4.5 billion years, the force of Earth’s gravity has been pulling it towards us, but it is still (and will continue to be) far away from us.

Due to the gravitational connection of the two bodies, it is practically impossible for them to collide with each other. To interrupt or change this cycle, a significant change in gravity would have to occur.
Among the possibilities is a giant sized asteroid hitting the satellite and causing it to hit the Earth. Indeed, only one event will change the millennial balance between our planet and its only natural satellite.
,Technically, it is possible that the Earth and Moon could collide in the not too distant future, but it is highly unlikely.”, concludes NASA.
