I believe it’s more probable that there are other life forms very similar to us, and perhaps even more intelligent. That wouldn’t require too much.

Andromeda always gets a look when it's well placed for viewing, the best views I get of it are with my 10-inch F/4.5 Dob and a 30mm ultra-wide angle eyepiece that yields a true field of view that is 1.8 degrees across.

While exciting and interesting, anything that happens beyond the Milky Way galaxy is but useless information. No one alive today, or the next thousands of years, will experience what is happening outside of the galaxy. Furthermore, the distance to Andromeda makes the information we gather by looking at it with a telescope completely obsolete. For all we know, a major disaster could have disrupted the galaxy in fractions by now, and we wouldnt realize it before a million years have passed by.

It makes me wonder, what’s the attractant between the two? If there was a central point to begin expansion (Big Bang), how can 2 galaxies be moving towards each other, or even moving at much of a different rate from the point of origin? After all, these 2 galaxies are very close to each other in astronomical terms. I would expect they would be expanding outward at a very similar rate. I must be missing something.

@StaticBlaster

@@jusgibs It's true negative pressure is suffusing and permeating space such that the universe expands at a superluminal rate. As it does, most of the galaxies are driven apart not by the motion of the galaxies through space (although they are moving but let's ignore that for now) but by the expansion of space itself. In a local region of the universe, however, all the nearby galaxies such as the local group of galaxies are moving towards each other due to the conventional "force" of gravity acting on each other. So in the far future say about 4.5 billion years, there will be supergalaxies and Milkomeda will be one out of many supergalaxies that have merged from smaller ones. However, as said before, for the most part, galaxies will be driven so far apart caused by the expansion of space. So there's nothing missing. They are both true.
