Space Stories - Galaxies Don’t Crash, They Remix

Hosted by our Director, Avivah Yamani.


Today's podcast guides you through the slow-motion meeting of the
Milky Way and Andromeda. Learn why stars mostly miss each other,
how gravity sculpts tidal tails, and how colliding gas and dust
spark starbursts—turning two spirals into one remixed galaxy.
Epic? Yes. Doomsday? Nope.
