Milky Way Galaxy Cannibalizes Sagittarius

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Our Milky Way galaxy is gobbling up its galactic neighbor, Sagittarius, and on Wednesday, scientists offered documentary proof of this continuing cosmic cannibalism.


Astronomers have mapped the Sagittarius galaxy to show in detail how its debris wrap around and pass through the Milky Way, which contains Earth.


On its way to oblivion, the dwarf Sagittarius -- which is about 10,000 times smaller in mass than Milky Way -- is getting stretched, torn apart and ultimately eaten, scientists at the University of Virginia and the University of Massachusetts reported.


"It's clear who's the bully in the interaction," Steven Majewski of the University of Virginia, lead author of the report, said in a statement.

1. Bush heard about WMDs on Sagittarius Omicron 5...

Been defying United Federation of Planets resolutions for millenia...

12. Is THAT were Saddam hid them?

and I thought the Iraqi space program consisted of a bucket and one man's dreams.

:shrug:

2. I'm a Sag

Will I cease to exist? Will I end up a vapory meta-burp in the inky cosmos?

???

get away!
get awaaaay!!!!

3. When asked to comment on the apparant lack of bombing threats

posed by Sagittarius Omicron 5, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld responded: "The very fact that there has BEEN no bombardment from Omicron 5 is, we think, a very ominous development."

7. The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence

Get your head around that and get back to me.

4. Sagittarius - the Iraq of the universe!

The Milky Way - The George W. Bush USA of the universe. Never have I been so proud to live in this galaxy. :eyes:

8. Your galaxy decal won't get you into.......uh........someplace anymore

Somthing like that.

10. How sad.

Actually, we should all be a bit sad here. According to Drakes Equation, the Sagittarius Galaxy should have contained at least one advanced, sentient alien species. Every night when these people walk out their back doors and look into the sky, they see the Milky Way Galaxy stretched across the horizon, and they know it spells the end of their civilization and likely their species.

I get bummed out by the strangest things sometimes:(

14. The stars in the galaxy are like molecules in the air

they won't actually collide because they are light years apart.

[Xithras]

16. Not quite

Gravity waves can rip stars apart. Radiation bursts can sterilize vast swaths of space. A star can be tossed into a nebulae, bombarding its planets with thousands of asteroids a day. A star can be thrown into the depths of intergalactic space, or hurled into the center of a galaxy.

The odds of a lifebearing planet surviving the destruction of its galaxy are pretty slim. We'll find out in a couple billion years when our own galaxy slams into the larger Andromeda galaxy.

13. My galaxy is bigger than your galaxy

naa naa naa naa naaaaaaaa
