However, we now know that NGC 6052 actually consists of two galaxies that are in the process of colliding. A lot of very interesting things happen when galaxies collide, not least of which is the ...

And that is exactly what NASA's super space telescope James Webb has done once again, after snapping a mesmerising image of the moment two spiral galaxies collided. We may be seeing the merger for ...

Two galaxies that closely neighbour the Milky Way are at war ... Cloud may eventually be completely destroyed and in a few billion years these galaxies will collide and merge with the Milky Way. Why ...

The common theory is that two galaxies collide, causing a quick burst of new stars before running out of energy and going quiet. But Steinhardt suggests another possibility. Some of these galaxies ...

The plasma that makes up the accretion disk comes from farther out in the galaxy. When two galaxies collide and merge, gas is funneled into the central region of that merger. Some of that gas ends ...

Astronomers have, for the first time, directly observed star clusters merging at the cores of dwarf galaxies—a process long ...
