TechiWire.com

Come on, TechiWire.com, who are you trying to fool?

Your article from June 27 is titled, "Arp 299: Galactic Goulash."

A Phys.org article from June 26 is titled, "Arp 299: Galactic Goulash."

Your first three paragraphs:
What would happen if you took two galaxies and mixed them together over millions of years? A new image including data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory reveals the cosmic culinary outcome. 
Arp 299 is a system located about 140 million light years from Earth. It contains two galaxies that are merging, creating a partially blended mix of stars from each galaxy in the process. 
However, this stellar mix is not the only ingredient. New data from Chandra reveals 25 bright X-ray sources sprinkled throughout the Arp 299 concoction. Fourteen of these sources are such strong emitters of X-rays that astronomers categorize them as “ultra-luminous X-ray sources,” or ULXs.

You're just taking Phys.org's content and slapping your own name on it.  And you've got a bunch of AdChoices links on your page?  That's just sketchy.
