Break On Through To The Other Side
Relax folks, it's not as bad as the thread title implies; Sparlock will come to our rescue. From the op link:
"The merger poses no real danger of destroying Earth or our solar system, researchers said. The stretches of empty space separating the stars in the two galaxies will remain vast, making any collisions or serious perturbations unlikely.
"However, our solar system will likely get booted out to a different position in the new galaxy, which some astronomers have dubbed the "Milkomeda galaxy." Simulations show that we'll probably occupy a spot much farther from the galactic core than we do today, researchers said."
holy crap sparlockman
It won't be the first time. The Milky Way galaxy has gobbled up others several times. There are galaxy remnants and streams of galactic material flowing through and around the galaxy. Life goes on.
