Astronomers now believe the Milky Way's "inevitable" collision with a neighboring galaxy is much less likely than originally ...

In recent groundbreaking research published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, scientists from the University of Queensland have provided insights into the likely fate of our galaxy ...

Will the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies collide in several billion years? The odds have changed with a new study using 100,000 supercomputer simulations. Credit: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center ...

It turns out that looming collision between our Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies might not happen after all. Astronomers reported Monday that the probability of the two spiral galaxies colliding is ...

The Andromeda galaxy lies just beyond (...OK, about 2.5 million light-years beyond) our galaxy, the Milky Way. These galaxies are more than just neighbors: They're gravitationally bound. And for the ...

In this combination of images from NASA/ESA shows three future scenarios for Milky Way & Andromeda encounter. Top left: Galaxies bypass at 1 million light-year separation. Top right: At 500,000 ...

Scientists have long thought the Milky Way galaxy would someday collide with its closest neighbor, Andromeda. However, new research suggests the future of our cosmic home is more uncertain than ...

Researchers combined deep learning with high-resolution physics to create the first Milky Way model that tracks over 100 billion stars individually. Their AI learned how gas behaves after supernovae, ...
