Interesting explanation. I heard that scientists were working

with a couple different theories/models.

1. The Solar System will be more out further as a result of the merger;
2. The Solar System will be ejected by the new galaxy;
3. The Sun may end up too close to the Black Hole and torn apart as a result (not sure what that would mean for the planets); or
4. The Solar System ends up in the Andromeda Galaxy.

It sounds like when the merger occurs the Earth's surface will be too hot for liquid water to exist which should bring about the end of all terrestrial life unless mankind has found a way to utilize planetary engineering.

When I hear stories about the search for life beyond our planet, -- HokieSignGuy 06/07/2018 12:29PM

And think about how much life does not live on the top layer of Earth -- HokieAl 06/07/2018 12:53PM

I do agree that Earth is a special place -- VTHokie2000 06/07/2018 12:47PM

We have a bit longer than that. -- Hokie CPA 06/07/2018 12:53PM

When I think about the sun burning for that long, I am instantly brought -- HokieSignGuy 06/07/2018 2:35PM

4 billion years from now the Sun will be burning much hotter than it is -- Hokie CPA 06/07/2018 3:38PM

Great balls of fire! -- VTHokie2000 06/07/2018 3:42PM

It truly is. At the same time, I refuse to believe we're all alone in this -- Hokie CPA 06/07/2018 12:46PM
