no you are wrong that does not happen
Answer:
This was a major question that a lot of very smart scientists had back in the early part of the 20th century. They realized that atoms had a dense, positively charged nucleus at the center, and that electrons went around it somehow. They asked: "how can the atom be stable? Why doesn't the electron spiral down into the nucleus?" They knew that certain laws of physics predicted that an orbiting charged electron should slowly lose energy, fall in, and crash into the nucleus. Yet all of the trillions of trillions of atoms and more all around them seemed completely stable: crashes never happened.
Then came Niels Bohr, who used a curious observation by a guy named Max Planck, that some phenomena seemed to contain discrete energy levels, you could only have certain energy values in these systems, nothing more, less, or in-between.
Bohr thought that atoms might be the same, and he was right! (About that at least, he got some other details wrong) We now know that electrons cannot spiral into the nucleus because the energy level needed to do that is not allowed according to the rules of quantum mechanics. The lowest possible energy level makes the average distance between the electron and the nucleus comfortably far away from each other.
