M31 is moving toward the Milky Way at about 250,000 miles per hour. At that speed we could reach the moon in an hour. This series of photo illustrations shows the predicted merger between the Milky Way and Andromeda as seen from Earth. The first frame is the present day; the last frame is 75 years from now.































.j/k its 700 billion not 75 years

Hard to tell as time is not absolute but is relative to one's position in the universe. I would have say soon™, or, maybe later.

Perhaps you should all lie down on the floor and put paper bags on your heads or something. Probably won't help, but it certainly can't hurt.

Icon12 my god! gas is leaking out of your anus....soda speke

Move over corona virus, galaxies colliding, sun expanding into red giants etc.:[/QUOTE] Uranus, the seventh planet from the Sun, is a truly odd place. Now it just got odder. As if the name of the planet wasn't enough, scientists recently discovered Uranus is home to fart-smelling clouds. University of Oxford researchers examining the planet's infrared light through the Gemini North telescope discovered clouds of hydrogen sulfide spreading into Uranus' upper atmosphere. That's a toxic gas that smells like rotten eggs or someone passing gas It’s a giant magnetic bubble that may have been whisking Uranus’ atmosphere out to space. A plasmoid is a structure of plasma (electrified gas) in a magnetic bubble in the magnetosphere of a planet. Astronomers have finally figured out what the clouds of Uranus consist of - and as it turns out, they smell terrible. For the first time, there's been a clear detection of hydrogen sulfide, the gas that gives rotten eggs - and flatulence - their distinctive aroma It’s thought that a cylindrical plasmoid discovered at Uranus—which is at least 127,000 x 250,000 miles across—could be responsible for draining ions from the planet’s atmosphere, therefore causing it to lose mass. Not happy with being the coldest planet of them all and the only planet in the solar system to spin on its side (every 17 hours and 14 minutes), the “ice giant” now appears to be a “wobbly magnetic oddball” that’s leaking its atmosphere into space.

cool Buzz Lightyear says:

Piffle.
With the astronomical distances between stars in any galaxy the chances of anything colliding during a galactic merger would be, well, astronomical.


We stand a better chance of getting gobsmacked by some BFR hurtling through the solar system.

tbh I would love to be able to flick a switch and boom, I'm immortal, so then I can see the Andromeda and Milkyway merge from a different planet than Earth since Earth will most likely be uninhabitable by the time the merger takes place. It would be an amazing sight to see!

And then I can see the eventual end of everything, then when the universe is about to die, I flick a switch in my mind, and then I am mortal and I die.

In a nutshell: I would love to be immortal so I can witness the death of the universe, and then I can become mortal and die.
