NASA reveals that the Milky Way’s Enormous 4 Million Solar Mass Black Hole has a predicted “Awakening” in about 2 billion years, triggered by the future collision and merger of the Large Magellanic Cloud with our galaxy.

Well… that killed my motivation to work today. What’s the point?
I was today years old when I learned the Large Magellanic Cloud is on a collision course with the Milky Way. Will all of the galaxy’s satellites be eventually consumed by it?
When the sun rises, it will get bright out ahh article.
Preppers be preppin’! Get those bunkers stocked! 👍
RemindMe! 2 billion years
Or thereabouts
We’ll be feeding well, ladies and gentlemen!
I can’t wait to see it! Should be a good show.
I always wondered: if everything is moving away from everything else, following a theoretical big bang, as it’s been studied before, how can there be any collision of matter? Is this matter gravitating toward each other?
Will I be able to see this from my home? It’s dark tonight, I live in Europe.
If that is true, then there must be danger to the Earth, because black holes are dead particles, so we must be aware of the dangers from space.
Everyone, quit worrying about it. Life on Earth will likely be entirely extinct by two billion years from now excepting possible extremophilic prokaryotes, and humans will be gone in less than ten *million* years. No one will see this happen or be in danger from it.
We’re doomed! /s

Oh, so the black hole in the center of our galaxy is still dormant?
I can’t wait to see that happen, that’ll be cool!
Oooh, I’ll be 2,000,000,046
By then Netflix will cost a billion a month for the ad tier.
april fools right? it’s april fools
5 year old me would have been devastated by this news
I’ll put it in my calendar.
NASA keeps feeding us fantasy bullshit while they are filling their pockets every day. It’s one of the biggest scams in the world.
oggi ho imparato che la nube di magellano is a thign ed e in rotta di collisione. me ne faro una ragione.
grazie🤌👋👋👋👋👋👋
I read that the Milky Way was going to collide with the Andromeda galaxy. Will this be before or after the LMC? Also does any of it matter as I read that the distances are so vast between objects within each galaxy that there was unlikely to be any collisions
Uh oh. Gonna have to out that on the calendar.
By the time that happens every atom that comprises my body will be into other shenanigans.
Would it be enough activity to qualify as a quasar?
Oh no time for me panicking that we are all gonna die XD- me as a 8 yo
Tired: Milkdromeda
WIRED: MILKDROMAGELLAN
No point paying off those credit cards I guess
Oh man I hope I’m around for this, will be crazy!
