Now THAT would be a sight to see.

That image of the jet particles hitting the edge of that galaxy is awesome.

From a distance. :lol:

I seem to remember that our galaxy is on collision course with some other galaxy.

 

Nice link btw.

Yeah, except when galaxies collide, the stuff in the galaxy RARELY ever hits the stuff in the other galaxy. And I mean EXTREMELY RARELY because there is so much space in between things.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

It's the gravitational forces that mess you up.

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

There goes the potential for alien life in another galaxy.

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Not necessarily.

 

According to the article the massive influx of energy and radiation from the jet may end up generating the formation of many stars and planets once its initial wake of destruction is complete. So it might end up actually being a new source of life one day.

I suddenly have this image of the cowboy pilot from Dr Strangelove riding a galaxy as it plummets towards another larger galaxy.

It contains two galaxies in orbit around one another which are in the process of merging.

That's so romantic. :ermm:

 

No wonder they started throwing stuff at the other galaxy. No-one likes a peeping tom.

Still, incredibly fascinating events (as long as they happen far enough away).

Yeah, but it's not every day you get to see two galaxies making out.

A rogue star was seen to explode without a parent galaxy recently. Seems it figured "**** the rules, I don't need to no galaxy to create me!"
