In 2022, there will be a spectacular sky show.

What Telescopes Saw (Videos) ] This still from a NASA animation shows the aftermath of a collision of two neutron stars, which merged into an objected called GW170817. The collision of two neutron stars, seen in an artist's rendering, created both gravitational waves and gamma rays.

What Telescopes Saw (Videos) ] This still from a NASA animation shows the aftermath of a collision of two neutron stars, which merged into an objected called GW170817. By … The two stars, located a mere 1,800 light-years from Earth, are currently locked in a spiralling death dance.


In 2022 we'll be able to watch an 1,800-year old star collision. Predicting such an explosion is a 'one-in-a-million chance', and if they are right it will be the first time it has ever been done According to the researchers, in the year 2022 – just a few short years away – they were going to collide.

This illustration shows the hot, dense, expanding cloud of debris stripped from neutron stars just before they collided.
Two stars will merge into one, pushing out excess gas into an explosion known as a red nova. By Tom Bawden. In 2022, there will be a spectacular sky show. A stellar collision is the coming together of two stars caused by stellar dynamics within a star cluster, or by the orbital decay of a binary star due to stellar mass loss or gravitational radiation, or by other mechanisms not yet well understood.. Astronomers predict that events of this type occur in the globular clusters of our galaxy about once every 10,000 years.

Researchers used those signals to locate the event with optical telescopes.

This event likely signaled the merger of two neutron stars and could give astronomers fresh insight into how neutron stars – dense stellar objects packed mainly with neutrons – … And it wasn't just going to be a small blip in the night sky.

A bright burst of X-rays has been discovered by NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory in a galaxy 6.6 billion light years from Earth. [When Neutron Stars Collide! A long time ago in a galaxy far away—NGC 4993, to be exact—two neutron stars collided and created a spectacular light show. Re: What will happen when these two stars collide in 2022? Two stars will NOT merge and explode into red fury in 2022 Well, two stars may merge somewhere, but probably not the two stars you were thinking of. Two stars will merge into one, pushing out excess gas into an explosion known as a red nova.
