That's quite clearly Alderaan, and this is evidence of the war crimes committed by Tarkin and the Empire!

So this is what it's like when worlds collide

This pic has stars in the background but the othwr ones iv seen dont... Why is that???

Pretty sure those are all galaxies.
bunnyrut
colliding or merging. maybe they really love each other and are joining together is cosmic matrimony.

Here is a computer simulation of the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies, in about 3.75 bn. years - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WoLSL3EDEs

Thats so totally gonna ruin my day
CydeFX
Then this will make your day - Scientists say with the immense space between stars, the odds are that our solar system will go untouched.
ConductorOfTheStruggleTrain
You can actually see the remnants of a collision between the Milky Way and a another smaller galaxy from like 8 billion years ago around us.
ispentwaytoolongthinkingaboutthis
I think you mean 6000 years ago.
HikariShade
Were actually on a collision course with the Andromeda galaxy if I remember correctly. But wont happen for several billion more years.
ConductorOfTheStruggleTrain
Yep yep. We will form the "Milkdromeda" galaxy.

How do things collide when they are moving apart in the expanding of the universe?
GdebMueller
Space time is also moving. And likely nothing but the massive black holes at the center will touch. So much room between stars
TXjlp86
Wow I never thought of it that way. And also trying to comprehend the speed of this seemingly slow motion impact
Knilore
How do we move around at all then?
somebodyelseduh
Moving apart on the grand scale. Things can still hit in their own local regions
Carger
Especially when you have the immense gravity of galaxies in play.
gloriouskiller
Gravity mostly

What he said too.

The mutual gravitational attraction between two galaxies at that distance is too small to have a significant effect, so the galaxies more >

OccasionalPunctuation
We're actually mid-collision right now, in case you're wondering. Give it another 4 billion and we're colliding with Andromeda, too.
Botatious
Now are we gonna merge or will we simply collide and whats left moves on?
OccasionalPunctuation
We collide, kinda move past, gravity pulls us back, collide, and repeat until eventually we merge into one galaxy.

TacticalWookiee
That is fucking terrifying
OccasionalPunctuation
Though in reality, it's highly unlikely that Earth will collide with any planets when that happens. We'll be dead from other things, though.
leonth3duke
Am I mistaken in having heard that there is so much space between stars that when galaxies collide there isn't really much actual collision?
schrodingerscatfood
Colliding dust and gas will set in motion a burst in new star formation.
ZitzRash
Nah man, you're not, chance of even a single collision is insanely small. Imagine shooting 2 basketballs, one from ny, other from la /1
ZitzRash
and expect them to collide in the middle
OccasionalPunctuation
Nope, you're right. Mostly an interaction of gravitational forces, and not much else.
mistervinster
So, if life still exists then, would the collision kill us all, or would it just be pretty lights in the sky for a billion years?
OccasionalPunctuation
Here's a pretty thorough explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uiv6tKtoKg
OccasionalPunctuation
Basically, pretty lights, but we'll be dead. Oceans dried up, an atmosphere like Venus, a couple billion years later... Yeah, we ded.

Cool. In short, immortality isn't all that it's hyped up to be. Ha, those suckers.
