If that’s the case, then the Milky Way and Andromeda, thought to be on a collision course in about four billion years, could already be interacting. The headline finding from the research is ...

But only one galaxy stands out as the most important nearby stellar island to our Milky Way -- the magnificent Andromeda galaxy ... "This was probably due to a collision with another galaxy ...

Further studies predicted that Andromeda's eventual collision with our Milky Way was inevitable within the next 5 billion years — a process that would see our solar system catapulted to an outer ...

The astronomical panorama is a major accomplishment because Andromeda is the “closest” large galaxy to ours, at a distance of 2.5 million light years away — equal to the diameter of the Milky Way disk ...

Observations show Andromeda has a more active star formation history than the Milky Way, potentially due to a past galactic ...

Around 2015, astronomers took on the painstaking task of stitching together Hubble Space Telescope images of this galaxy, but that effort had focused on the galaxy's northern half. Still, however, the ...
