We’re Doomed

The New York Times tells us that scientists have determined that the Andromeda Galaxy is on a path to crash into the Milky Way. The two galaxies will mingle together, separate and then combine into a large egg shaped galaxy. The video below shows what it will look like from a distance. It even shows that it will look like after the merger from the surface of earth. Of course, there will be no one there to see it.

Leads to the obvious philosophical question, “If a two galaxies crash into each other and there’s no one there to see it, did it happen?”

Kinda makes ya think….
