There is a roughly 1 in 100,000 chance that the Earth might be ejected into interstellar space by a stellar encounter before this point, and a 1 in 3 million chance that it will then be captured by another star. Were this to happen, life, assuming it survived the interstellar journey, could potentially continue for far longer. Median point at which the Moon's rising distance from the Earth lessens its stabilizing effect on the Earth's axial tilt. As a consequence, Earth's true polar wander becomes chaotic and extreme, leading to dramatic shifts in the planet's climate due to the changing axial tilt. If the Earth's tilt exceeds 54°, then the poles will receive more solar radiation than the equator. The planet's tilt could shift to as high as 60° - 90° for periods of 10 million years. 3.6 Billion, Neptune's moon Triton falls through the planet's Roche limit, potentially disintegrating into a planetary ring system similar to Saturn's.
