I believe the idea here is that the stars are more likely to explode as a result of a merger.If one of the stars explodes before that... Well, in general, if one star in a binary system explodes, you can expect part of the matter to pass over to the other star, as a result to its gravitational attraction. This in turn may make the remaining star explode sooner than it would otherwise - perhaps almost immediately, depending on the exact situation.

Why do atoms explode?

Atoms explode when they undergo a rapid release of energy due to a chain reaction of nuclear fission or fusion within the nucleus. This can happen in nuclear reactions, where atomic nuclei split or merge, releasing massive amounts of energy in the form of heat, light, and radiation.

Why do a question's original spelling mistakes stay after suggesting a merge?

Suggesting a merge sends a question to a CA to approve or decline a merge. When you merge questions, you do not change the wording of the questions. Normally we would not notice that the questions do not change because the merge happens instantly, but since there is a delay, we notice it. Don't worry even though it looks like nothing has happened, something will happen.

What might happen to the Andromeda galaxy in future?

It will "merge" not collide with the Milky Way Galaxy in about 4 billion years times.


What would happen to the earth if galaxies collide?

In all probability nothing at all. In about 5 billion years the Andromeda Galaxy will merge with our Milky Way Galaxy (note the word merge, they merge not collide). The distances between stars and planets is so great that in most cases, the merge will happen without any major changes. This is not to say that nothing will happen. Gravitational interactions between close stars could have a catastrophic effect on any planetary system. However, as said before the chances are slim. It's like shooting a shotgun at an object 1 mile away and hoping to hit it with just one pellet.
