Astronomers: Galaxy may be loaded with 'ticking time bombs'
By: Kenneth Andrews
Space is big. Really big. Even the most inept science-fiction highlights the immense nature of space as a silent empty void which consists mostly of not very much at all. But astronomers are now challenging this view of space as the cosmological equivalent of North...
