Milky way it will collide with another galaxy that is speeding towards ours at the moment, scientists have already been talking for some time about what is going to happen. More precisely, in 4 billion years, the Milky Way will collide with a galaxy that is already close to it, and is on a clear course to combine with ours, it being smaller, and going to be swallowed by ours, as happened to others.
Milky way the image above shows this collision that is anticipated by scientists from all over the world, the process being a very complex one, but not exactly a first. The Milky Way has swallowed other galaxies that have collided with it, and that is how it has become so large over the course of billions of years of collisions with other galaxies, gathering millions upon millions of stars and planets that are now inside or.
The Milky Way: The Image Showing the Collision with Another Galaxy
Milky way could have a violent collision with this galaxy that is rapidly heading towards it, so scientists could have a very interesting show in the sky in the future. The Milky Way is so big that this collision should not affect the Earth, even if everything will happen in a very long time, and we don't know anyway to what extent we will be affected by what will happen within our galaxy.
Milky way it grew following collisions with other galaxies, and it is expected that this process will not be interrupted suddenly without much explanation, but it happens quite rarely. 4 billion years is a very long time, so by then it's possible that all of humanity will disappear, so it's possible that no one will be able to observe the collision between that galaxy and the Milky Way, so that's not really humanity's big problem At this point.
Milky way it has gone through several collisions throughout its existence, some with effects observed by scientists, but nothing has been directly observed until now.
