Choque de galaxias: Andrómeda y la Vía Láctea

The video discusses the collision of the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies, explaining that such events are common but not dangerous due to the vast distances between stars. It highlights the future growth of the Sun, which will make Earth uninhabitable. The video also covers the eventual collision of supermassive black holes at the galaxies' centers, which will emit intense gravitational waves. Simulations suggest the solar system might be ejected from the Milky Way-Andromeda merger, though this is uncertain.

What is the largest galaxy in the local group?

• Sagittarius

• Triangulum

• Andromeda

• Milky Way

Why is there no need to worry about galaxy collisions?

• Galaxies are made of gas and dust

• Galaxies move too slowly to collide

• Stars within galaxies are too far apart to collide

• Galaxies are too small to cause damage

What will happen to the Earth when the Sun grows larger?

• It will have no liquid water

• It will develop new life forms

• It will move closer to the Sun

• It will become a gas giant

What is the likelihood of two stars colliding during a galaxy merger?

• Impossible

• Very high

• Moderate

• Very low

What might happen to the solar system after the Milky Way and Andromeda collide?

• It will be destroyed

• It will remain unchanged

• It will be ejected into space

• It will merge with another solar system
