Guys, I have bad news. The Milky Way is going to collide with its neighbor Andromeda. It's been nice knowing you guys. Oh, you'll have to wait around for another 4 billion years for this epic game of galactic chicken though.




Figured I'd start a thread on science related articles. Post em if you got em or come across any interesting things. Science happens to be an amazing topic to me.

I always remind myself to suspend reality when dealing with measurements and space.

The fact that the a thing 93 [I]MILLION[/I] miles away can still heat our little rock in space is incomprehensible to me. I accept it on an intellectual level but really, fully grasping the reality of it is just simply beyond my tiny little brain.

EDIT: I'll just have to build a robot to do it for me. :laughing-
