Andromeda–Milky Way Collision! JWST REVEALS

Andromeda–Milky Way Collision Already Begun — JWST REVEALS  

Andromeda–Milky Way collision
is a galactic collision predicted to occur in about 4 billion years between the two largest galaxies in the Local Group—the Milky Way (which contains the Solar System and Earth) and the Andromeda Galaxy.
The stars involved are sufficiently far apart that it is improbable that any of them will individually collide,though some stars will be ejected.

Andromeda and Milky Way galaxies are merging

The Andromeda galaxy, isn’t noticeable in our night sky, unless you look for it. Under dark skies, however, you can see it without optical aid, but only as a barely visible fuzzy patch of light. But one day, far in the future, Andromeda will be bright in our sky, growing larger and larger … as it gets closer and closer to us. And even though the two galaxies are still 2.5 million light-years apart, the eventual merger of our two galaxies has, in fact, already begun, according to the James Webb Space Telescope, JWST.

What happened in the beginning to bring us to what we see today? With the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers can investigate “Cosmic Dawn” like never before. The observatory had been online for less than a year, but in that time, the quest to understand our cosmic genealogy has taken unexpected turns.
