Like blazing campfires on cold winter nights, galaxies are surrounded by a smoke of gas and dust that blows into the shadows.

      Andromeda and the Milky Way shall merge in the most beautiful sex display you’ve ever seen, they will become one in the flesh and yet over millions of years bangin it’s unlikely a single ball will touch. Therefore my thesis of galactic homosexuality is false and our merging is not gay and the socks can be removed.

      Thank you for coming to my defense, boring questions will not be allowed.

        If some bot reacts to this comment, you’ll make the developer very unhappy.

    When we collide the chances of anything hitting anything else is quite small.

    If we scaled down the universe so that our sun was 1mm in diameter then our next closest star would be about 17km 18 mi away (earth would be about 4.25 inches away) . Galaxies are so empty they would just sling stars around when they merge/collide.
