• Zooming in on the Andromeda Galaxy 5.6.2020 • This video begins with a ground-based view of the night sky, before zooming in on a Hubble image of the Andromeda galaxy — otherwise known as M31. This image of the galaxy is the biggest Hubble image ever released and shows over 100 million stars and thousands of star clusters embedded in a section of the galaxy’s pancake-shaped disc stretching across over 40 000 light-years. This is amazing! • Zoomable image of Andromeda Section: https://www.space

2.5 million light years away, the Andromeda Galaxy is packed with orbiting galaxies! #bosplanet These dwarf galaxies are being studied to understand the formation and evolution of Andromeda, and they exhibit some unusual characteristics. NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has created a 3D map of these dwarf galaxies, revealing details about their star formation histories and their asymmetric distribution around Andromeda. @nasa @nasahubble w/ @space_telescopes | bosplanet
