Our Galaxy Will Collide with Andromeda, Scientists Confirm
202610 मिनिटे
Our galaxy is on a collision course with Andromeda, and astronomers have confirmed that this cosmic encounter is no longer just a theory. Traveling toward each other at hundreds of thousands of miles per hour, the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are expected to begin merging in roughly 4 to 5 billion years, creating one of the most spectacular events in the history of our cosmic neighborhood.
