It turns out that looming collision between our Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies might not happen after all.

Milky Way galaxy might not collide with Andromeda after all Astronomers ran 100,000 computer simulations using combined Hubble/Gaia space telescope data.

The Milky Way got its name because from our perspective on Earth, it appears as a faint band of light stretching across the entire sky. Photos of the Milky Way galaxy: Is the Milky Way visible on ...

A collision between our Milky Way galaxy and the neighboring Andromeda galaxy, long considered inevitable, may be in question, astronomers say.

Astronomers reported Monday that the probability of the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies colliding is less than previously thought.

For this new study, the scientists relied on updated galaxy measurements to factor in the gravitational pull on the Milky Way's movement through the universe.

New data show a 50% chance the Milky Way won't collide with Andromeda. A merger with the Large Magellanic Cloud is far more likely.

Astronomers think that a smaller nearby galaxy could pull the Milky Way away from its long-presumed collision with the Andromeda galaxy.

The Milky Way and the neighboring Andromeda galaxy are currently hurtling through space toward each other at a speed of about 250,000 miles per hour (400,000 kph), setting up a possible future ...
