Perpetual motion is everywhere in space. Using that motion for doing work will always change the motion, and it will eventually no longer be useful. This is what a perpetual motion machine tries to do but can not.

AFAIK even space will cool down and stop eventually. So not perpetual motion very low friction motion? I know that expansion also plays a role.

If you think about it, when the universe cools down, maybe some rocks will fly forever without hitting anything.

A cooled down universe does not move at all AFAIK. please Look up Brownian motion.

If a rock is moving between galaxies, what would make it stop?
