Andromeda–Milky Way collision - Wikipedia
The Andromeda–Milky Way collision is a galactic collision predicted to occur in about 4.5 billion years between the two largest galaxies in the Local Group—the Milky Way (which contains the Solar System and Earth) and the Andromeda Galaxy.
NASA’s Hubble Shows Milky Way is Destined for Head-On Collision
2012年5月31日 · This animation depicts the collision between our Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy. Hubble Space Telescope observations indicate that the two galaxies, pulled together by their mutual gravity, will crash together about 4 billion years from now.

Messier 31 (The Andromeda Galaxy) - Science@NASA
M31, also well-known as the Andromeda Galaxy, is the nearest major galaxy to our own, the Milky Way. Assembled from a total of 7,398 exposures taken over 411 individual pointings of the telescope, this image of our nearest major galactic neighbor, M31, is the largest Hubble mosaic to …
Hubble shows Milky Way is destined for head-on collision with Andromeda ...
2012年6月1日 · The solution came through painstaking NASA Hubble Space Telescope measurements of the motion of Andromeda. The galaxy is now 2.5 million light-years away, but it is inexorably falling toward...
Astronomers Release New All-Sky Map of Milky Way’s Outer …
2021年4月21日 · This visualization shows the central disk of our Milky Way galaxy and a smaller nearby galaxy called the Large Magellanic Cloud. A new, all-sky star map charts the location of stars in the Milky Way’s outer reaches (known as the galactic halo), about 200,000 light years to 325,000 light years from the Milky Way’s center.
Galactic halos touching, comprehensive map of Andromeda halo …
