How long is a galactic year, the time it takes for our solar system to make one orbit around the Milky Way?
Correct answer: 225-250 million years

Tobias,
If we mark our position today we can check when we get back to it.

You can however bend space and shorten the distances between places

Player #136569400, it’s headed in our direction as we speak. Though it will take hundreds of millions of years. We will be long gone as the Earth will grow inhospitable way before then.

BrainTek , I read Andromeda will bi-sect the Milky Way.

I learned something new today.. I thought I read somewhere a few yrs ago or watched it.. it was either that the milky way and Andromeda are heading toward each other or Andromeda is heading toward a black hole or Andromeda is set to collide with another galaxy (or collide with something) --- has been a few yrs since I read or watched it and not going to Google it atm

who counted is a good question. this orbit interval is recorded in ancient Hindu texts and we have just estimated it recently.

Who counted? I don’t believe in the trueness of these data. Just my opinion 🤷♀️

I just picked the longest time and it turned out correct

A time range difference of 25 million years is unbelievable.

Never learned this but now I did
