Celestials also have been shown to be hurt by lower beings then the skyfathers such as hulk. The Watcher stated at full power galactus could destroy the universe ten times over.
just because a celestial stated it, doesnt mean its true. a watcher is just as powerful as galactus by on panel depictions, but fear the celestials. once, galactus tried to mind read reed richards, but a watcher over ride his power to do so, and he couldnt. even galactus didnt know what was going no despite him being in plain view.
you cant destroy something 10 times, once its gone, its gone, alternate realities are moot. the celestials also dont have a home world. they did in the secret wars series. but it was since retconned. so if they dont have a homeworld in 616 universe, how could it be destroyed by galactus??? sounds kinda... alternate reality to me... which is still moot so this is strictly opinion...
