> From previous discussion: > > > David: As for why God took time, please remember my observation that God likes to evolve: the universe, the giant Milky Way which gobbled/es up satellite galaxies, the Earth, and then life. You never deny this, just ignore it. > > This is an important point in understanding God: teh prime use of evolving his creations: > > https://phys.org/news/2020-07-stars-born-galaxy-milky.html > > "Writing in Nature Astronomy this week, Necib and her collaborators describe Nyx, a vast new stellar stream in the vicinity of the Sun, that may provide the first indication that a dwarf galaxy had merged with the Milky Way disk. These stellar streams are thought to be globular clusters or dwarf galaxies that have been stretched out along its orbit by tidal forces before being completely disrupted. > > *** > > "How did the Milky Way become what it is today? > > "'Galaxies form by swallowing other galaxies," Necib said. "We've assumed that the Milky Way had a quiet merger history, and for a while it was concerning how quiet it was because our simulations show a lot of mergers. Now, with access to a lot of smaller structures, we understand it wasn't as quiet as it seemed. It's very powerful to have all these tools, data and simulations. All of them have to be used at once to disentangle this problem. We're at the beginning stages of being able to really understand the formation of the Milky way.'" > > Comment: It appears the Milky Way is one of the biggest giant spiral galaxies, which was created by an evolutionary process which used a system of simply gobbling up smaller satellite galaxies. This put the Earth two-thirds of the way out the second spiral arm, as very safe spot from all the life-destroying violent activity at the center. God obviously knows what He is doing, protecting the living planet He created.
