The Star conflict will be with Andromeda


Shock will grow a new galaxy, which sum the mass of the Milky Way and Andromeda, where the Sun, according to observations made ​​during the last five years with the Hubble Space Telescope. The vast majority of stars survives the impact, but will be in different orbits about the center of the galaxy. The Sun, according to simulations from the Hubble observations, blown away in the quiet region of the Milky Way where you are now and remain on the periphery of the new galaxy, as the authors have announced the investigation in a wheel press organized by NASA.

Although Andromeda and the Milky Way are approaching about 400,000 kilometers per hour, are still so far that the collision of galaxies takes 4,000 million years to occur. At that time, the sun will still be melting hydrogen in its core and is expected to have the similar planets around now, but emit more heat than now and will no longer sign of life on Earth.
After the first impact, it'll be about 2,000 million years before the completion of the merger between two galaxies. That merger will grow a new single giant galaxy with a supermassive black hole at its center of gravity that governs the stars that orbit around it.
"After nearly a century of speculation about the future destiny of Andromeda and our Milky Way, we finally have a clear picture of how events will unfold over the next billion years, a researcher in a statement released yesterday by the Institute Hubble Space Telescope Science and NASA.
Previous observations had established that Andromeda and the Milky Way are approaching attracted by their own gravities. But he had not yet been able to calculate whether they would side by side within walking distance, like two stars that orbit a common center of gravity, if Rotarian its periphery but survive the encounter, or if fully collide, center against center, and a new galaxy.
The results of the research presented in The Astrophysical Journal, the impact will end. Simulations from the Hubble observations indicate that small Triangle Galaxy M33 which now is a satellite of Andromeda may add to the collision.
With or without M33, "our data are statistically consistent with a conflict between Andromeda and the Milky Way, an astronomer at the Hubble Telescope Institute and director of research.

Previous observations had established that Andromeda and the Milky Way are approaching attracted by their own gravities. But he had not yet been able to calculate whether they would side by side within walking distance, like two stars that orbit a common center of gravity, if rozarían its periphery but survive the encounter, or if fully collide, center against center, and alumbrarían a new galaxy.
The results of the research presented in The Astrophysical Journal, the impact will end.Simulations from the Hubble observations indicate that small Triangulum Galaxy M33 which now is a satellite of Andromeda, may add to the collision.
With or without M33, "our data are statistically consistent with a collision between Andromeda and the Milky Way," said Roeland van der Marel, an astronomer at the Hubble Telescope Institute and director of research.
