- The nearest galaxy, Andromeda, is headed toward our Milky Way galaxy at 110 km per second (68 miles/sec). It'll look bigger & bigger in our skies before colliding with us in a few billion years, and when that happens, the two galaxies will be ripped across space by tidal forces. https://www.youtube.com/watch?amp%3Bfeature=share&v=jen5YuwzENA 33 comments space
- The Milky Way likely smashed into the recently discovered galaxy, Ant 2, in the past few billion years. The evidence comes from a unique ripple pattern found in the Milky Way's gas disk that is an "almost dead on" match for what would happen if the two galaxies had collided in the semi-recent past. http://www.astronomy.com/news/2019/06/the-milky-way-still-bears-scars-from-a-collision-with-a-ghostly-galaxy 20 comments worldnews

- A likely Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) spotted in Andromeda Galaxy by NASA's Swift satellite, the closest one ever detected. Best guess is that it's due to two neutron stars colliding. Swarms of astronomers crash NASA Swift data servers, as observatories go to action stations to see what's happening. http://swift.ac.uk/sper/600114/ 16 comments space
