What happens if the Milky Way collides with Andromeda? Will the Earth survive?
Exciting new simulations reveal that our Milky Way could gracefully dodge a direct encounter with Andromeda. What once seemed like an inevitable celestial clash now holds a 50-50 likelihood of avoiding destruction. Moreover, should a merger unfold, it's more the Sun's looming expansion that poses a greater risk to Earth than the cosmic waltz of galaxies.
