The Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy are moving towards each other that a rate that will make them "collide" in about three and a quarter billion years. "Collide" is in quotes, because galaxies are mostly empty space, so it's fairly unlikely that any of the individual stars making up the two galaxies will physically touch as a result of the "collision"; instead, the two galaxies will just merge into a larger one.
What else can I help you with?
Is Andromeda the closest galaxy near us?
Yes, that is correct and also Andromeda will collide with our galaxy in about 3 billion years from now.
What is andromedas purpose?
Andromeda is a galaxy like the Milky Way (the galaxy we are in). Andromeda is the closest major galaxy to our own, and eventually will collide with our galaxy. This is not something we need to worry about however, because our earth will be long gone before the galaxies collide.
What is thought to be the fate of the milky way?
andromeda and milky way galaxy will collide and become a elliptical galaxy.
Is the milky way crossing another galaxy?
no, but it will collide with Andromeda in a long time
Which galaxy are you heading towards?
It seems that the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy will collide, in about 3-4 billion years.
What galaxy will eventually collide with milkey way galaxy?
The Milky Way galaxy will collide with Andromeda, but it will take about a 2 billion years until they collide and finish. Earth will not get blown up, but by then, the sun will probably be out of hydrogen and expand. Then earth will be engulfed and all life will die.
Why will the Andromeda Galaxy collide in a billion years?
Because it's heading towards us.
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.
How fast does the Andromeda galaxy go?
The Andromeda Galaxy is moving towards our Milky Way galaxy at a speed of about 110 km/s. This movement is called the "Andromeda-Milky Way collision." Scientists predict that the two galaxies will collide in about 4 billion years, merging into a single galaxy.
How many planets are in the Andromeda galaxy?
Astronomer's have not been able to count all the planets in the Andromeda Galaxy. The Andromeda Galaxy is home to one-trillion stars. The Andromeda Galaxy is expected to collide with the Milky Way in the next 4.5-billion years.
How long until the milk way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy collide?
The Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are expected to collide in about 4-5 billion years, based on current estimations. This collision will result in the formation of a new galaxy often referred to as "Milkomeda."
When will the galaxy Andromeda collied with the Milky Way?
They will collide in approximately 3 to 5 billion years time!
