Outer Edges of Milky Way Orbited by Invisible Galaxies

The outer edges of the Milky Way’s appear to be orbited by innumerable invisible galaxies, one of which appears to be crashing into our own. In 2005 astronomers discovered the first evidence of mysterious dark galaxies with no starlight - VirgoHI 21 - a cloud of hydrogen in the Virgo Cluster 50 million light-years from the Earth found to be colliding with our galaxy. VirgoHI 21 revealed its existence from radio waves from neutral hydrogen coming from a rotating cloud containing enough hydrogen gas to spawn 100 million stars like the sun and fill a small galaxy.

The rotation of VirgoHI21 is far too fast to be consistent with the gravity of the detected hydrogen. Rather, it implies the presence of a dark matter halo with tens of billions of solar masses. Given the very small number of stars detected, this implies a mass-to-light ratio of about 500, far greater than that of a normal galaxy (which would be around 50). The large gravity of the dark matter halo in this interpretation explains the perturbed nature of the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 4254 and the bridge of neutral hydrogen extending between the two entities.

[ M'kay, looks like it's bedtime for me. Gotta get up in a few hours and do errands and whatnot. Lemme know if I missed something of yours during my lack of focus... all day... ]

[photon-galaxy]

"I understand. You know I do." Perhaps not to the same extent, but all the same, they’ve both dealt with losses. "At least you’re still as stubborn and driven as I’m used to. I’d be disappointed if you lost that fire."

Kaito shakes his head once again, the hand on his hip moving to join his other arm, folding them over his chest. “And to think, we never got to duel each other again. It seems it’s a little late for that.”

[grinditintoyouwhenibeatyourass]

And you’re as cool-headed and annoying as ever. I guess there are somethings we can’t erase about ourselves. 

…I honestly would have liked the chance to duel you again. To test my growth against the man who defeated me so effortlessly before. It would have been a good measure of my strength. Though I’m sure I’d defeat you. 

[photon-galaxy]

"You still think highly of yourself, don't you?" It's a bit of a tease, like what they used to do - and maybe he shouldn't settle into old habits like that, but it's a little difficult not to. "I would have liked it, as well. I have no doubts you've gotten stronger, especially now." A compliment? More likely than one might think. "I'd say no matter the outcome, it'd be a close match."

[photon-galaxy]

[ lmao i hate this show that's all i'm gonna say

no i don't i could never hate zexal ]

[photon-galaxy]

[ time to disappear and prep myself for watching zexal. I'll be back. ... eventually, sob. ]

[photon-galaxy]

"I never needed validation from you before. Why would I need it now?" Kaito rests a hand on his hip, smirk fading slightly as he gives his head a slight shake. "Different body and name, but you’re still the same man inside."

[grinditintoyouwhenibeatyourass]

Don’t get too comfortable with me, Kaito. I’m not the Ryoga you knew. We are similar but not the same. I have different goals and different lengths I would go to in order to achieve them. 

[photon-galaxy]

"So I’ve heard." His expression is quick to harden again. "I presume you know what you’re doing, so I have no intention on lecturing you on your choices. If this is the fate laid out for you, then so be it." Though, Kaito lets out a quiet sigh - there’s a part of him that wishes things weren’t this way at all. Ryouga had been one of his few friends, after all. "I just hope you’re prepared for anything to happen."

[grinditintoyouwhenibeatyourass]

Good, because there would be no change in my course even if you did. I will not stray from the path that I have chosen, even if it means I must destroy the people I once called my “friends”. 

I’ve lost everything more than once in my life, Kaito. I will not let it happen again. I cannot let it happen again. 

[photon-galaxy]

"I understand. You know I do." Perhaps not to the same extent, but all the same, they've both dealt with losses. "At least you're still as stubborn and driven as I'm used to. I'd be disappointed if you lost that fire."

Ryouga had been one of his few friends, after all. "I just hope you're prepared for anything to happen."

[grinditintoyouwhenibeatyourass]

If you came all this way, there must be something you want, Kaito. Unless you simply came to tell me how you returned to this plane of life.

[photon-galaxy]

"What, I can’t say hello to someone that resembles an old friend?" There’s no keeping a hint of a smirk from appearing on Kaito’s face. "Or perhaps I want to simply keep an eye on you and watch the rest of these events unfold. I don’t suppose you’re that opposed to my company, are you?"

[grinditintoyouwhenibeatyourass]

Not especially, no. Though, if you expect me to praise you on your defeat of Misael, you’re half-right.

[photon-galaxy]

"I never needed validation from you before. Why would I need it now?" Kaito rests a hand on his hip, smirk fading slightly as he gives his head a slight shake. "Different body and name, but you're still the same man inside."

photon-galaxy started following grinditintoyouwhenibeatyourass

 Kaito. I assumed you were dead.

[photon-galaxy]

"So you heard. I’m not surprised that word travels fast. Either way, here I am. Nasch."

"So you heard. I'm not surprised that word travels fast. Either way, here I am. Nasch."

[photon-galaxy]

"Decent enough." It was a lackluster response, but it was likely to be expected from Kaito. He glanced up at Astral and offered a nod of greeting to him, acknowledging that he was there.

"I expect you’ve been keeping yourself out of trouble." Ryouga must get tired of having to save Yuuma’s ass all of the time, and the thought of the other duelist brought a bit of a smirk to Kaito’s face.

[utopiaholderyuma]

At Katio’s comment, Yuma pouted. Astral chuckled. ‘Seems you haven’t changed at all.’ Astral smiled. Yuma smiled as well. “Hey how’s Haruto doing?” He asked, curios how the younger boy was.

[photon-galaxy]

It wasn't at all surprising to hear Yuuma asking about Haruto. For what he could tell, Yuuma at least understood the value of family enough, and Kaito held no issue with answering that question with a little more detail than the one about himself.

"He's been well; still a bit weak, but getting better over time." Kaito took a quick glance around, then stepped a little closer. "I think I may be willing to have send him over for a dinner with your family soon. He doesn't remember much from that time, but he remembers that."

[utopiaholderyuma]

Yuma’s smile grew. “Katio! Hey! I haven’t seen you in a while!” He said running over to him. Astral followed after. When Yuma caught up to Katio, he smiled. “How have you been?” Yuma asked.

[photon-galaxy]

"Decent enough." It was a lackluster response, but it was likely to be expected from Kaito. He glanced up at Astral and offered a nod of greeting to him, acknowledging that he was there.
