Andromeda Galaxy (Messier 31)
In the Universe, the Andromeda galaxy is the nearest spiral galaxy to our own galaxy, the Milky Way. It spans about 200,000 light years and is located about 2.5 million light years away from the Earth in the direction of the Andromeda constellation. It is visible to the naked eye. One trillion stars are believed to be present in this galaxy. Many Universe pictures are taken as frames and then combined together to form the whole astronomy picture of the celestial object in question.
Here’s a band called Messier 31. It’s appropriately spacey.
