  2. Andromeda Galaxy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andromeda_Galaxy

    The Andromeda Galaxy is known to harbor a dense and compact star cluster at its very center, similar to our own galaxy. A large telescope creates a visual impression of a star embedded in the more diffuse surrounding bulge. In 1991, the Hubble Space Telescope was used to image the Andromeda Galaxy's inner nucleus.

  3. Andromeda–Milky Way collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andromeda–Milky_Way...

    The Andromeda–Milky Way collision is a galactic collision predicted to occur in about 4.5 billion years between the two largest galaxies in the Local Group —the Milky Way (which contains the Solar System and Earth) and the Andromeda Galaxy. [1][2][3][4][5] The stars involved are sufficiently far apart that it is improbable that any of them will individually collide, [6] though some stars ...

  4. Messier 110 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messier_110

    Messier 110, or M110, also known as NGC 205, is a dwarf elliptical galaxy that is a satellite of the Andromeda Galaxy in the Local Group. [9]

  5. Messier 32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messier_32

    Messier 32 (also known as M32 and NGC 221) is a dwarf "early-type" galaxy about 2,650,000 light-years (810,000 pc) from the Solar System, appearing in the constellation Andromeda. M32 is a satellite galaxy of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) and was discovered by Guillaume Le Gentil in 1749. The galaxy is a prototype of the relatively rare compact ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Andromeda's...

    List of Andromeda's satellite galaxies. The Andromeda Galaxy (M31) has satellite galaxies just like the Milky Way. Orbiting M31 are at least 13 dwarf galaxies: the brightest and largest is M110, which can be seen with a basic telescope. The second-brightest and closest one to M31 is M32. The other galaxies are fainter, and were mostly ...

  7. Andromeda (constellation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andromeda_(constellation)

    The constellation's most obvious deep-sky object is the naked-eye Andromeda Galaxy (M31, also called the Great Galaxy of Andromeda), the closest spiral galaxy to the Milky Way and one of the brightest Messier objects. Several fainter galaxies, including M31's companions M110 and M32, as well as the more distant NGC 891, lie within Andromeda.

  8. Andromeda XIX - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andromeda_XIX

    Andromeda XIX is a satellite galaxy of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), a member of the Local Group, like the Milky Way Galaxy. [3] Andromeda XIX is considered "the most extended dwarf galaxy known in the Local Group", [4] and has been shown to have a half-light radius of 1.7 kiloparsec (kpc). [4] It was discovered by the Canada–France–Hawaii ...

  9. SN 1885A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN_1885A

    SN 1885A (also S Andromedae) was a supernova in the Andromeda Galaxy, the only one seen in that galaxy so far by astronomers. It was the first supernova ever seen outside the Milky Way, [ 3 ] though it was not appreciated at the time how far away it was.
