THE GREAT ANDROMEDA GALAXY (M31)

2.5 million light-years away, M31, a vast spiral galaxy, much like ours, is gently gliding through space, edging closer to us every second. In 4.5 million light-years, The Andromeda Galaxy is predicted to collide with ours in what will be a spectacular cosmic event. Until then, it remains a beautiful target for us astrophotographers to image and enjoy.
