    Astronomy Adventure - Andromeda Galaxy

    The Andromeda galaxy, also know as Messier 31, is the nearest major galaxy to our own Milky Way. Here are some photos that pretty much replicate what you will visually see with a small telescope.



    If you look closely, you can see Messier 32, the small fuzzy ball at about 1:30 on the clock to the upper right of Andromeda.



    Photos Details:

    Scope: Starblast 4.5
    Camera: iPhone 6 using NightCapPro with highISO boost on
