The Galaxy Showdown That Might Not Happen!

The burning question on many stargazers' minds has long been: When will our Milky Way collide with the nearby Andromeda Galaxy? For years, experts have predicted a dramatic cosmic encounter around four billion years from now. However, a groundbreaking study published in Nature Astronomy throws a curveball into this long-held belief.

New research indicates that the chance of a collision between the Milky Way and Andromeda might be much lower than previously thought. In fact, scientists now estimate a staggering 50% probability that the two galaxies will avoid a crash over the next 10 billion years!
