The Cosmic Crash That Will Destroy Our Galaxy

Look up at the night sky, and you won't see it—but a massive, unstoppable force is speeding directly toward us at 250,000 miles per hour.
In a few billion years, the Andromeda galaxy will violently crash into our home, the Milky Way. It sounds like the ultimate cosmic apocalypse that will destroy our galaxy, but the truth is far stranger and incredibly beautiful. Because the universe is overwhelmingly, unimaginably empty, this terrifying galactic collision will actually be a harmless, majestic cosmic dance.
In this video, you will learn:
• The timeline of the cosmic crash: When the Andromeda galaxy collision will begin and what it means for Earth.
• The paradox of empty space: Why billions of stars and planets colliding together likely won't result in a single physical crash.
• A changing view: How our night sky will radically transform over the next few billion years as the galaxies merge.
• The birth of Milkomeda: The ultimate fate of our solar system as we settle into a brand new, massive elliptical galaxy.
Whether you love astronomy, astrophysics, or just thinking about the vast future of the solar system, the sheer scale of the cosmos is enough to give anyone a sense of existential dread. But don't worry—the vast empty space between the stars is actually our greatest shield.
