Our own galaxy may have similarly consumed passers by in the remote past, as revaled by recent studies of the Milky Way. Perhaps someday NGC 2207 will return to its former delicate spiral form, the stars of the other galaxy incorporated into it - will astronomers there in the distant future be shocked to learn their galaxy is a cannibal? NGC 2207 is suitable for large telescopes only, and requires dark skies.
