ANDROMEDA GALAXY: OUR VISITING <br /> NEIGHBOUR! <br /> (THIS POEM IS A SEQUEL TO: - ‘‘GALAXIES: STAR CITIES <br /> IN SPACE’’) <br /> <br />Calculations by Astrophysicists’ indicate, - <br />That in a few million years from date, - <br />Our Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy, <br />Would eventually collide to embrace, - <br />Out there in that vast galactic sea! <br />They would form a single giant elliptical <br />galaxy in space, - <br />Like merger of two big corporate houses <br />on earth, - <br />In a commercially viable surviving race! <br />These two giant galaxies are approaching <br />each other around 120 km per second! <br />And after a few passes, in about a billion years, - <br />With gravitational pulls tugging their spiraling <br />arms, <br />A complete merger is predicted by five billion <br />years! <br />So never blame Poets when they ‘dream’, - <br />No matter how impossible now things may <br />appear or seem! ! <br />The computer models which the scientists have <br />made suggests, - <br />Our solar system would survive this merger, <br />out there in space! <br />Though we are likely to be pushed out to the <br />outer halo of this New Galaxy; <br />Even though it all may sound like a fairy tale, – <br />To both you and me! ! <br /> -Raj Nandy <br /> 09 Mar 09 <br /> New Delhi <br />(READERS ARE KINDLY REQUESTED TO READ ALL 03 <br /> POEMS BASED ON ASTRONOMICAL FACTS .)<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/anromeda-galaxy-our-visiting-neighbour/
