Some astronomers say that it will occur 10 million years.

No duh.
And just make a topic called "Future Collisions"
It might do a Roche Limit btw.

Yeah, tidal froces and gas drag are forcing triton nearer to Neptune. Eventually it will pass within the roche limit and either break up into rings or collide with Neptune.

I think we need a subforum for astronomy and maybe another one for physics related topics.
