Close up of galactic conflict

Astronomers saw a pair of galaxies rushing into each other in the distant universe, a future image of the Milky Way itself for several billion years.

Under Hubble's lens, the pair appears to be the only cluster of galaxies called NGC 2623, located 300 million light-years from Earth, according to NBC News.

NGC 2623 galaxy is in the process of merging between two spiral galaxies

Shaped like the Milky Way, they rush into each other at tremendous speeds. Filled with dust, gas and young star clusters, opposing spiraling tails have stretched across the dimension of space stretching 50,000 light-years, if counted from the core has been combined into one.

The process of star formation and active people made NGC 2623 shine brightly. Some combinations, including NGC 2623, can stimulate the activity of one of the two giant black holes located in the center of the galaxy, creating a beautiful electromagnetic spectrum.

Although galaxies are hitting each other at tremendous speed, the stars inside it are still far away, avoiding a catastrophic collision between planets. However, stars will be thrown into different orbits around the new galaxy center, according to NASA experts.

The findings allow astronomers to get an accurate overview of the fate of the Milky Way. The Milky Way is currently preparing to embark on a fierce conflict with the neighboring Tien Nu galaxy, 2.5 million light-years away, in about 4.5 billion years.

According to the models predicted, the sun will travel to new lands, but it seems our Earth does not face the risk of destruction, at least we hope so.
