Revised Galaxy Collision Probability: Milky Way-Andromeda Merger Less Likely
New research, using advanced supercomputing and data from the Hubble and Gaia telescopes, indicates only a 2% chance of a Milky Way-Andromeda collision within 5 billion years, primarily due to the gravitational influence of the Large Magellanic Cloud; a Milky Way-Large Magellanic Cloud merger is nea...

Giant Space Structure Discovery Challenges Cosmological Models
Dr. Alexia Lopez, a 28-year-old astrophysicist at UCLan, discovered the Giant Arc, a massive ring-shaped structure in space challenging conventional cosmology; Nobel laureate Sir Roger Penrose cited her work as substantiating his Conformal Cyclic Cosmology theory.
