The Fighting Moose


Sep 17, 2020

The Andromeda Galaxy is approximately 2.5 million light years away. A light year is equal to about 6 trillion miles (9 trillion km). So that's a huge distance, I can't even imagine what that would look like. Anyway, before our mind hurts too much, in today's story, we read about Perseus and Andromeda. The Andromeda Galaxy is named so because it sits inside the Andromeda Constellation. See the Andromeda Facts link in the show notes for more information. This galaxy is on my stargazing map and I still have yet to see it. I think I may have to take a trip up north to get some nice, dark skies and try to get a picture with my telescope.
