When will the Milky Way collide with the Andromeda Galaxy? It's a common question because, for many years, astronomers have theorized that the two largest spiral galaxies in our cosmic ...

The Andromeda galaxy is also known as Messier 31. It is a spiral galaxy located about 2.5 million light-years from Earth. On a clear night, some stars of the galaxy can be seen from Earth.

A collision between our Milky Way galaxy and its largest neighbor, the Andromeda galaxy, predicted to occur in about 4.5 billion years, has been anticipated by astronomers since 1912.

NASA: 'Magnificent' Andromeda galaxy in pictures Hubble, with its sharp imaging capabilities, detected more than 200 million stars in the Andromeda galaxy that are brighter than Earth's sun.

Astronomers have long thought that the Milky Way is headed for an inevitable crash with its neighbor, Andromeda. But a new study complicates the story.

Here’s how it works. A panoramic view of the neighboring Andromeda galaxy, located 2.5 million light-years away, requiring over 600 Hubble overlapping snapshots to stitch together.
