There's so much more to Andromeda than its eponymous galaxy. Here's a list of other targets to observe in the Princess.

Today, we know the Andromeda galaxy, one of an estimated 6 to 20 trillion galaxies in our universe, is about 2.5 million light years away.

Andromeda is about 2.5 million light-years from Earth and is the largest galaxy in the Local Group, which also includes the Milky Way and about 30 smaller galaxies.

A collision between our Milky Way galaxy and its largest neighbor, the Andromeda galaxy, predicted to occur in about 4.5 billion years, has been anticipated by astronomers since 1912.

More than a decade ago, scientists predicted our Milky Way galaxy and neighboring Andromeda would collide in four billion years, resulting in a “makeover” of our solar system. Now, that is ...

As the closest large galaxy to the Milky Way, at just around 2.5 million light-years away, Andromeda has been vital in allowing astronomers to study aspects of galaxies that aren't accessible from ...

There’s now a 50-50 chance this galaxy will crash into ours Astronomers have long thought that the Milky Way is headed for an inevitable crash with its neighbor, Andromeda. But a new study ...

Credit: S. Fatigoni et al (2021) It took 66 hours of observation and consistent data analysis for the researchers to map the galaxy with high sensitivity. They were then able to estimate the rate of ...
