Not what you asked, but note that eclipses change on geological timescales because the Moon's orbit is slowly shifting. Whoever talks about us like dinosaurs isn't going to have total solar eclipses any more, they'll be impossible by then!

Where is the moon going so that our progeny won't see solar eclipses any longer?

Assuming we survived ourselves, didn't blow ourselves up.
