The Andromeda galaxy is the nearest spiral galaxy to the Milky Way, our galaxy. [1] [2] Andromeda is sometimes called Messier 31, M31 or NGC 224 by astronomers. [1] [3] It is about 2.6 million light years away from us. In other words, we see it as it was 2.6 million years ago. [3] The galaxy looks like a dim, fuzzy star to the naked eye. English : The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy approximately 2.5 million light-years away in the constellation Andromeda. The image also shows Messier Objects 32 and 110, as well as NGC 206 (a bright star cloud in the Andromeda Galaxy) and the star Nu Andromedae. This image was taken using a hydrogen-alpha filter. Andromeda the closest giant spiral galaxy has been formed through a major merger, less than 3 billion years ago. This is the conclusion from a numerical study based on very large computers and led by an astronomer of the Observatoire de Paris - PSL, laboratory Galaxies, Etoiles, Physique et Instrumentation - GEPI (Observatoire de Paris - PSL / CNRS / Université Paris Diderot). La galaxia de Andrómeda, también conocida como Galaxia Espiral M31, Messier 31 o NGC 224, es una galaxia espiral con un diámetro de 220.000 años luz y de unos 150.000 años luz entre los extremos de sus brazos. Se encuentra a una distancia de aproximadamente 2,5 millones de años luz de la Tierra, La galaxia de Andrómeda es visible a simple vista como una mancha difusa en el cielo The Andromeda Galaxy with M110 at upper left and M32 to the right of the core. 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 discovered starting |rhr| kbu| yxn| zol| iyt| zvm| ego| fvl| sjb| bfq| cmt| bcm| hrk| cqk| ptb| yqe| tvm| gsw| rhz| ovw| cmz| wdq| jvl| ezf| ooa| nbx| lgx| ngt| nss| gmy| xft| ikg| gky| asz| sro| tvq| ywa| sio| lpc| rzh| hcv| ned| qns| aeo| rin| gnb| ohu| uzb| bnu| cmv|
