M31 The Andromeda Galaxy

At 65 miles per second...it would take 7.16 billion years to reach

this galaxy!

Thx for viewing.

Excellent!

I wanted to rate it a 7/ 7 but the system wouldnt let me.

vVery nice. I love pics like these.

I was hoping I would find M31 in your collection. This is a truly amazing photo! I am wondering could you superimpose this image onto a "normal" wide angle sky photo to help people understand where to find Andromeda in relation to the other stars and constellations? Many people claim to see it as a naked eye object but it's not easy to do near cities. And I think only certain times of the year is it visible. Your tracking telescope is awesome to give you this much precision over such a long exposure! Cheers.

Beautiful
