Hold on tight: in 4 billion years, we’re due for a galactic collision!
The galaxy we live in, the Milky Way, is a large spiral galaxy that lives in a small cluster of other galaxies called the Local Group. The other big member is the Andromeda galaxy, located about 2.5 million light years away. That’s a long way off, but we’ve known for a long time that Andromeda is heading more or less toward us at a speed of roughly 100 km/sec (60 miles/second).
The question is, is it headed directly at us, or does it have some “sideways” motion and will miss us?New results announced today by astronomers using Hubble show that — gulp! — Andromeda is headed right down our throats!
But don’t panic. It won’t happen for nearly 4 billion years.

“Right after my father died, I would come up here a lot. I’d imagine the whole world as one big machine. Machines never come with any extra parts, you know. They always come with the exact amount they need. So I figured, if the entire world was one big machine, I couldn’t be an extra part; I had to be here for some reason. And that means you have to be here for some reason too.”

- Hugo Cabret.

and my very own gun.
it´s a gun which can collect small pieces of time in it´s tank. so i can collect seconds and sometimes minutes, pulverise them and can then sell them to anybody who wants a few extra moments.
