  • The Andromeda Galaxy is our massive galactic neighbour, a spiral galaxy more than double the size of the Milky Way. In this video, we will be taking a journey, from this galaxy's ancient history, right up to its remote future- using the latest and most beautiful images to know our cosmic neighbour like never before. This is our journey to the Andromeda Galaxy...

      I can remember the awe of discovering other galaxies existed, but I was a kid. My grandmother taught us to read starting when we could talk like a 4 year old should. She would spend an hour or so every day teaching us the letters, sounds and we'd get a small chalkboard to print them on.
      A few years later I remember the day I read in our Funk & Wagnalls Encyclopedia about galaxies with a big picture of the Triangulum Galaxy. I didn't understand exactly what some terms or concepts meant, but I understood what galaxies were. I was 8 years old and it was the summer of 1958.
      I went outside that night and looked at the starry sky and thought about it, wishing I had a telescope. I got a decent one for Xmas, a three inch reflector (80mm) and the full Moon was out that night. It came with a star chart (hold over your head) and two lens, one was 22x and the other was 80x. I had no idea what the mm on the 80mm aperture by 400mm focal length meant as I hadn't read anything about metric yet. I'll tell you what, I could see the Andromeda Galaxy when I got away from the city light with that 18mm lens. I have a couple of telescopes now and still look at the stars. One actually not too much bigger than that first one.

      Light intensity diminishes by a square factor. We're 93 million miles from the sun. One astronomical unit. For every A.U. the brightness only 1/4th, 1/9th, 1/16th, as strong. Jupiter is 6 A.U. from the sun. So light is 1/36th as strong as on Earth. Keep doing that and the universe gets pretty dim. On Pluto the Sun is 1/1,300th as strong as on Earth.

      ​@@Broomtwo - That's how most great ideas begin, and very few things are known with absolute certainty. Stating "It was just a hypothesis" minimizes what a great thinker Kant was. Besides, if you posit something based on what little evidence is available at the time and it later turns out you were correct, then I'm going to give you credit for "figuring it out" even if someone else doesn't like my terminology. Kant was a major catalyst for our current understanding of a universe filled with multiple galaxies, and it was profound for someone in his day to even suggest such a thing at all. That was the point I was making.

      I also saw your definition, as well as "intended to teach, particularly in having moral instruction as an ulterior motive." Although I've heard SEA push a few very mild moral instructions, they basically amounted to "we are puny in the universe, so be good to each other, ok? ok," so I doubt that's what they're referring to here.

      You are so correct, Eric. We have come so far in just a little over a couple of hundred years.
      Where will we be in 500 years?.
      Wish I could be here to watch it all pan out.

      Just the milky way is already mind boggling, with what, 100 billion stars mb, and evn more planets perhaps.

    As much as I am fascinated by the possibility of alien life in our galaxy, the idea of beings living in Andromeda or one of our satellite galaxies and looking at our galaxy always gives me goosebumps. Also just imagine the view from one of those satellite galaxies!

    I can understand why astronomers of centuries past will have struggled with the concept of other galaxies. The distances and numbers involved boggles the mind. And these are our nearest neighbours!

    I like the way you present our local friendly galaxy in an almost anthropomorphic way and feel almost sad for its eventual demise in a way you might experience a tragic ending in a film :)
    (Essentially a narrative character arc that engages more than any dry textbook-style narration could...)

      Oh sure, no doubt. All I was trying to convey was the wonderment of that fact - and the utter sadness that in the trillion or so solar systems in that one galaxy that we will NEVER know anything about them, their planets, their cultures, their science, their languages or their art. I just feel Sad by it.
