Andromeda is a prominent constellation seen in the northern hemisphere during the autumn months. This constellation is well-known for housing the Andromeda Galaxy, which contains the oldest light visible with the naked eye. Andromeda and Pegasus share a star, thus utilizing the Great Square of Pegasus asterism to locate this constellation.

When I look at the Andromeda Galaxy, I think of all the civilizations existing there, thousands of them, in that tiny patch of light! As a child when I looked at Andromeda, I would say "I release your chains!" I could not bear to imagine any living thing chained! That voice again, so relaxing!

@MrCmon113 8 месяцев назад

Why should there be any civilizations in the closest galaxy if we can't see any in any other galaxy? For all we know, all the places we can see are completely void of intelligent life.

@Martmi29 4 месяца назад

@@MrCmon113 And how should we see them if we can barely make out any planets around any stars in our own galaxy with our current tech? Just because we don't have the ability to see them on the surface of their planet doesn't mean they are not there. Just because we haven't seen them doesn't mean they haven't seen us. Just because they haven't contacted or visited us (if they have the ability for space travel) doesn't mean they don't have a good reason that we don't understand to not make contact or to remain out of sight if they have visited.

I saw a video here on RU-vid where it said that the Andromeda galaxy is moving towards the Milky Way galaxy at a rate of 9 million miles a day, and even at the rate of speed, it would take approximately 400 to 450 million years for these two galaxies to collide. The Andromeda galaxy sits about 2.5 million light years away from us, you said that they will collide in 2.5 million years. I don't think the Andromeda galaxy is moving towards us at the speed of light. Those numbers just don't add up. Light travels at a rate of 186,000 miles per second. 186,000 x 60 = 11,160,000 miles per minute, 11,160,000 x 60 = 669,600,000 miles per hour, 669,600,000 x 24 = 16,070,400,000 miles per day. And my calculator won't give me how many miles per year, but's it's just mind blowing to think just how far 2.5 million light years really is.

@diverdiver729 2 года назад

You are right also the pictures that where used not very clear to see sorry narrative was very clear well done

@Martmi29 4 месяца назад

@STHFGDBY 5 месяцев назад

Fun fact ; Andromeda Galaxy is on a collision course with our Milky-way Galaxy and is travelling towards us at approx 9 million miles per day, but due to it's vast distance from us, it wont get here for approximately another 4.5 billion years..

@learnthesky 2 года назад

Thank you for your message. I am not the best person to recommend a telescope. I am more of a binocular user at the moment. I haven't made my big telescope purchase yet...I just can't decide what to get. My recommendation is to find a local star party and check out the telescopes there. It gives you a chance try different types and see what you like. I tend to prefer reflector telescopes. Dobsonian telescopes are inexpensive, but I always struggled to use them. A great channel for learning more about telescopes is called Eyes on the Sky. He does a great job going over different recommendation and skill sets when using a telescope.

@cruzincondo3395 Год назад

For me, Cassiopeia’s highest point is the “finger” pointing to the Andromeda Galaxy. Using a 5” reflector manually guided telescope the waypoints are really helpful. Also the “Nightsky” app is good for locating the planets in our solar system. Just type in your location. Annoyingly loud background sounds drown out the instructor.

There are no pre-Hellenic (Pre-Greek) references of even the name not to mention the concept of a Galaxy Andromeda. You say at the beginning this false, yet you fail to provide any such civilization simply because it doesnt exist. Andromeda is a Greek Creation or at least knowledge of some pre-cataclysmic ancient wisdom of our planet.
