No surprise here. Galaxies are always going to collide sooner or later, thats how they grow. It probably happened also with our galaxy. In 50 Billion Years all galaxys in the local group will collide. Then we have a giant cloud galaxy "milkomeda" which will be the only detectable structure in the whole universe by then, because all other galaxies are going to drift away faster then the speed of light. Future civilisations wont have a clue how the universe looks like.
