~ - USDANDROMEDA GALAXY OR M 31 is the closest to our galaxy, located 2 million 500 thousand years away of our Earth. The Andromeda Galaxy or M 31 is approaching our Milky Way at a speed of 120 km per second (432'000 km per hour). We expect it to collide and merge within 5 billion years with our very complex Spiral Galaxy. Despite its considerable size, it appears less massive than the Milky Way. Astrophysicists have calculated that its central black hole is 30 million solar masses. Bottom right of the photo, you can see the M 110 and near the white dot top left you can see the Galaxy M32 also. It is a spiral galaxy located approximately 2.55 million light years from the Sun in the constellation. https://platform.wise.art/author/robert-2/ http://astroliva.ch/
