Andromeda, Hubble Space Telescope and NASA

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope creates largest photomosaic ever made of "train wreck" Andromeda galaxy with over 2.5 billion pixels
The magnificent Andromeda galaxy (Messier 31), stands out as the most important nearby stellar island to our Milky Way, and can be seen with the naked eye on a clear autumn night as “a faint cigar-shaped object roughly the apparent angular diameter of our Moon” according to NASA.
2.5-Billion-Pixel Andromeda Galaxy Panorama Worth The Decade Of Hubble Observations
Andromeda is the closest large galaxy to the Milky Way. And it is getting closer, as the two will merge in several billion years. It has been an object of study for centuries, but we have never seen it like this.
NASA's Hubble traces hidden history of Andromeda galaxy
In the years following the launch of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have tallied over 1 trillion galaxies in the universe. But only one galaxy stands out as the most important nearby stellar island to our Milky Way -- the magnificent Andromeda galaxy (Messier 31).
Stunning new panorama of Andromeda galaxy took 10 years to make
Messier 31 is located 2.5 million light-years away from Earth and was a much bigger target in the sky than the galaxies Hubble routinely observes.
Epic 2.5-Billion-Pixel Portrait of Andromeda Galaxy
The Andromeda Galaxy, 2.5 million light-years away, is unveiled in Hubble's largest photomosaic. Spanning a decade, this 2.5-billion-pixel image reveals 200 million stars and Andromeda’s dynamic history.
