    the planet's gravity will cause Triton to fly into Neptune

    Explanation:

    Gravitational force is a force of attraction between two bodies with considerable masses.

    One of the mass tends to pull the other to it's center.

    As the force of gravity between two bodies grow, the more massive body will be drawn to the other one.

    The effect is that one body will eventually collide with the other. Since the planet pulls very hard on its moon On the long run, we can expect Triton to fly into Neptune in the foreseeable future.
