Perpetual motion is not possible. Due to (albeit incredibly tiny amounts of) matter spontaneously appearing then disappearing in the vacuum, there can never, ever be perpetual motion. The effects of this would take billions upon billions of years to be measurable though.
What is measureable though on far shorter time scales is the yarkovsky effect, which literally tears asteroids apart.
