Here are seven of the most beautiful interacting galaxy images captured by NASA Hubble Space Telescope, showcasing the ...

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The Milky Way could, relatively soon, collide with a neighboring galaxy. A new study published in the journal Nature Astronomy found that there is a 50-50 chance that the Milky Way and ...

New observations of a pair of colliding spiral galaxies hint at what might be in store for the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy if and when they collide. The findings, described in July in the ...

Examples of merging galaxies containing a heavily obscured growing supermassive black hole observed by the Hubble Space Telescope. The top panels show nearby galaxies at ~500 million light-years from ...

In this combination of images from NASA/ESA shows three future scenarios for Milky Way & Andromeda encounter. Top left: Galaxies bypass at 1 million light-year separation. Top right: At 500,000 ...

CNN — A new telescope image showcases two entangled galaxies that will eventually merge into one millions of years from now -- and previews the eventual, similar fate of our own Milky Way galaxy. The ...

For the first time, astronomers have been able to combine the deepest optical images of the universe, obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope, with equally sharp images in the near-infrared part of the ...

Astronomers now believe the Milky Way's "inevitable" collision with a neighboring galaxy is much less likely than originally ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has broken the distance limit for galaxies and uncovered a primordial population of compact and ultra-blue galaxies that have never been seen before. Garth Illingworth, ...
