Will our galaxy really collide with Andromeda? Maybe not

Summary

Nutrition label

77% Informative

A new simulation suggests the chance of a collision between the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy is less likely.

The new study still allows for a 50% chance of collision, however, which is not a negligible probability.

If the two galaxies do end up colliding billions of years from now , astronomers have predicted that our solar system would be flung into one of the newly merged galaxy.
