Wonder what those galaxies are up to now. I guess we'll find out in just another 13 billion years.

I know you're kidding but... We won't. Universe is expanding. Soon we'll be all alone and far away from any other galaxies.

Soon being relative to us humans evolving to beings of pure energy sort of time scale, but yes all relative.

That was a neat article I love hearing about stuff that is either happening or did happen, depending on a philosophical view. I don't do well that way so it happened in the past way before the sol system was a glint in a nebula's eye.

Yeah it's very cool stuff. The time scales can be hard to wrap your head around.

It would have been nice to see the image of said galaxies, instead of Stephen's quintet or whatever, which is relatively close to us .
