This article doesn't answer the question I came here to read about: will our descendants survive? Not on Earth (too hot), but assuming migration through the Milky Way by that time. Not by collisions with stars (improbable), but by encounters near enough to disturb the Oort cloud and similar objects throughout the galaxy, and rain asteroids on planets everywhere. Or is that realistic and/or documented? Art LaPella ( talk) 02:51, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
Sorry but i can't take giving the collision a name that would better fit in Disney World for serious. (Via)Lacteandromedae, Andromelactea, ... please? 鈥斅燩receding unsigned comment added by KnightOfTheNite ( talk 鈥 contribs) 09:40, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
The black hole collisions section contains incorrect statements, with links to non-existent references. These are currently references 11 and 12. I recommend deleting the text: "As of 2006, simulations indicated that the Sun might be brought near the centre of the combined galaxy, potentially coming near one of the black holes before being ejected entirely out of the galaxy.[11] Alternatively, the Sun might approach one of the black holes a bit closer and be torn apart by its gravity. Parts of the former Sun would be pulled into the black hole.[12]" Jpfleblanc ( talk) 14:13, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
The page name contains a long hyphen (don't know the official term) rather than a regular hyphen. Thus when the url is copied then pasted, it converts to /info/en/?search=Andromeda%E2%80%93Milky_Way_collision. Was this deliberate? (I could not figure out how to change it.)
The Milky Way and Andromeda are thought to collide in about 4.5 billion years. Has anyone in the papers cited conjectured when they will complete their collision and settle down into a new, much bigger piece of space estate? Thank you for your time, Wordreader ( talk) 23:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
