In recent groundbreaking research published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, scientists from the ...

While the Triangulum galaxy’s gravitational influence conspired to bring the Milky Way and Andromeda together, the LMC had a repellent effect. And when all four danced together, the odds of an ...

YOU can see the Andromeda galaxy in the night sky this week with the naked eye. The galaxy is estimated to have as many as a trillion stars – and will one day collide with our own Milky Way.

Andromeda also gobbled up M32p, once the third-largest galaxy behind Andromeda and the Milky Way and considered the Milky Way's long-lost sibling. It was at least 20 times larger than any galaxy ...

The Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is the largest member of the Milky Way’s gang of galactic neighbors, known as the Local Group. With around a trillion suns worth of mass, Andromeda’s gravitational ...

Andromeda is located about 2.5 million light-years from the Milky Way and it is the largest galaxy in the galactic group where they are located.

The Andromeda Galaxy is, officially, a monster. Astronomers studying our next-door neighbor have discovered that the huge spiral galaxy has quite the cannibalistic past. On two separate occasions ...

The Andromeda Galaxy is revealed in unprecedented detail in four archive observations from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. They show stars and structure in the galaxy’s disk, the halo of ...

The Andromeda Galaxy, also known as M31, is about the same size as the Milky Way and is located 2.5 million light-years away.

Scientists have discovered a giant pancake-like formation of 13 dwarf galaxies around the Andromeda Galaxy. The cosmic structure is 42,000 light-years thick.

The Andromeda Galaxy is really special to stargazers. Since it’s the only giant spiral galaxy we can look at closely, it’s essentially how we know what the Milky Way looks like from the outside.
