The whole mess was created 6000 years ago.
These people have hyperactive immaginations.

Andromeda Galaxy is about 3 billion years from colliding with the Milky Way Galaxy. I am pretty sure democRATs have sold us out.

After three billion years, a Milky Way would begin to look tasty.

. Andromeda was not kind to the onetime third-biggest member of this family, devouring it about 2 billion years ago, Something tells me they have Andromeda wrong. I think she took the galaxy in to protect and care for it. After all, the Universe can be a very dangerous place to be alone in.

Not sure a Milky Way would stay fresh that long, though.

Not sure a Milky Way would stay fresh that long, though.It's vacuum packed, should be okay.

Re: Say, is that a Milky Way?
The bite size variety. The kind we pass out on Halloween.

Andromeda was not kind to the onetime third-biggest member of this family, devouring it about 2 billion years ago, according to ithe new research.
Amazing how much silly, melodramatic phrasing has gone into a straightforward story about a billions-year old merger between two groups of stars. The actual facts are interesting enough without all of the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"-style narration.

Scientific faith. Because they cant prove it.
There’s a massive amount of “science” that is taken solely on “faith”.
Most of them are just as religious as the religious folks they despise, its just faith in a different thing. Of course their assumptions are just that. And nevermind the stuff they write papers on and base careers on, get disproven and all the stuff they demanded we believe because “its science and proven” all get dumped out.

I agree. I once posted a thread about some scientists who were planning to send a probe to study the dirty rings around Uranus, and you wouldn’t believe what that thread turned into!

All this and I’m still trying to figure out why Dr. Smith wasn’t murdered by the Robinson’s for all the chaos and damage he caused them.
