      It’s ok, the universe is expanding faster than the Milky Way can be attracted.

        We’re not so sure of that, weren’t there new observations that show the rate of expansion is slowing down? I know a paper was posted here a while back and it was getting some criticism but the authors stuck by their data.

      And we either won’t be invited to the wedding or we will be left behind at the wedding venue.

      (When the two galaxies merge we either won’t notice it except seeing the stars dancing in the night’s sky or the planets of our solar system will be flung out of orbit and turning Earth into a rogue planet.)
