Collisions between galaxies are a fairly common occurrence in the universe. Our Milky Way galaxy will crash into the Andromeda galaxy in a few billion years. Galaxies tangle together, kicking gas and dust all around. Often the battered galaxies are left with tails of material stripped off during the violence.

Interesting facts from NASA website:

Did you know that the Sun contains 98% of the entire mass of the Solar System?

Thanksgiving sky: Jupiter, Venus, moon together

Look in the southwestern sky — no telescope or binoculars needed. The show will even be visible in cities if it's a clear night

Starting Thanksgiving evening, Jupiter and Venus will begin moving closer so that by Sunday and Monday, they will appear about a finger width apart held out at arm's length.

Monday night, they will be joined by a crescent moon

The next time the three will be as close and visible as this week will be Nov. 18, 2052

That shockwave is badass. The Sun is so beautiful yet utterly terrifying.
