Four Galaxy Pileup Caught On Cosmic Camera

Four Galaxy Pileup Caught On Cosmic Camera

Seriously, Best. Headline. Ever.


This remind anyone else of Xenon II: Megablast?

The story's not half bad too, you can probably guess the gist of it from the headline, but this lot are apparently behaving a little strangely, and not creating any new stars.

I'm not entirely sure about the tenses they've used too, I think maybe Dr Dan Streetmentioner may need calling in to clarify things, but surely the phrase 'Eventually, they will create' shouldn't be being used when talking about something 5 billion light years away, which, if I'm not mistaken, therefore means it happened 5 billion years ago if we're just seeing it now?
