Astronomers from Durham University propose the Milky Way's orientation was flipped over 90 degrees about 10 billion years ago due to a direct collision with the dwarf galaxy Gaia Sausage, a cosmic event simulated using supercomputers.
Astronomers found evidence that the Milky Way's disc was flipped over 90 degrees about 10 billion years ago after a head-on collision with a dwarf galaxy called the Gaia Sausage, long before the solar system formed.
