in reply to ESA (unofficial) • • •“− − to re-examine the long-held prediction that the Milky Way galaxy will collide with the Andromeda galaxy in about 4.5 billion years.”
“− − based on the latest observational data from Hubble and Gaia, there is only a 50-50 chance of the two galaxies colliding within the next 10 billion years.”
Well this is some relief. However, just in case, would you please remind me about all this again in about 4.4 billion years’ time? One might want to take some precautions. 😉
