Also, by then , Earth's orbit may be crazy as well. It's VERY hard for a planet to stay in a perfectly stable orbit. Over time, small perturbations in the Earth's orbit might add up and throw us into a radically different apocalyptic orbit. Frankly, it's amazing that Earth has stayed in this relatively stable orbit THIS long. Most planetary systems end up with really eccentric orbiting planets.
