Milky Way Doomed to Crash with Andromeda
Four billion years from now, the Milky Way galaxy as we know it will cease to exist.
Our Milky Way is bound for a head-on collision with the similar-sized Andromeda galaxy, researchers announced today (May 31). Over time, the huge galactic smashup will create an entirely new hybrid galaxy, one likely bearing an elliptical shape rather than the Milky Way’s trademark spiral-armed disk.

Scientists Confirm Water on Moon

truth-has-a-liberal-bias:

No, there aren’t lakes in the moon’s craters, but scientists have found evidence that there is water on the moon, overturning longstanding theories that the lunar surface is as dry as a desert.

Columbia University’s Arlin Crotts has gathered data revealing that the Soviets found water in moon rocks during a 1976 voyage, publishing their findings in 1978 in a Russian journal that went unnoticed by the West.

Other trips to the moon, including the Clementine mission in 1994, have suggested that water exists on the moon, but the Soviets’ Luna-24 mission proves there’s even more than scientists thought. […]


Yes! I wanna drink some moon water!
