Colliding Galaxies                                         Check for X-Files on YOU

galaxy.jpg (63708 bytes)The photo at right was taken from the Hubble space telescope.  It shows two spiral galaxies (like two spermatozoa) colliding, producing millions of baby blue stars only two million years old.  This collision started while the dinosaurs roamed Earth.

For a description of what is predicted when the Milky Way (us) and Andromeda galaxies sideswipe each other, or collide to form a single elliptical galaxy in five billion years click on the link Milky Way - Andromeda Collision  Our Sun will burn out by then, so there will be no humans on Earth to watch.
