Nice vid I’m trying tonight to find it with my 8-20×50 binoculars : )
Very nice to watch and its interesting.
Wonderful!
So many videos tell you about the Andromeda, but not how to find it and look at it yourself.
This is very nicely done!
space is such a big place .
it looks like a small nebulae doesn’t it?
i saw it with my celestron astromaster 130eq and its pretty big but the problem is my light pollution and when i saw it , it was in time of high pressure humidity so ,but i also saw it with my binoculars it loks like a bright cloud in space!!
It’s a very nice video, and provides excellent details.
I have one problem… How do I find the Andromeda Galaxy in the Southern Hemisphere?
great video…didn’t know this.
great vid. light pollution sucks though, i use 15×70′s and barely found it…
I use 15 x 70 ‘s and barely found it. Heard it can be seen eye-naked….
Hi, thank you so much on this how to video. I have an refractor telescope 90mm f/5,5. I finded all planets besides Mercury, Mizar star, pleiades, Orion, but never Andromeda. Will try with this explanation first next clear night sky.
Very well explained. Thanks for sharing!
Finding galaxies is easy once you have Stellarium on your computer…its a free download and real-time picture of whats in the night sky at that time and at your location…its brill.
awesome videos
on that picture you actualy can see the andromeda galaxy with naked eye, but recognizing is another story
how they know its a galaxy they have not be there its are maybe just a star ?
I love your videos
What gets me when you look at M31 is that you can be certain somebody’s looking back at you.
Wow there are billions of galaxies out there i can bet my life we are not alone. I’m 99% sure there are other planets like Earth but no evidence or radio waves to pick up since we godzillion light years apart. Only our spirits will take us there..in a blink of an eye…like being reborn into a next life
Wow… we all busy around with our lives, worrying about bills and taxes when all this is floating around above us……
yeah your right same of a galaxy’s
spiral,elliptical,irregular……is that right?
@0805Alan “will try with this explanation first nixt clear night sky”
Well, how did it go?
This is amazing… You think that there is nothing to do, well your wrong… Just looking in the the night sky and check it out, it is beautiful…
I wish there wasn’t any pollution in city’s so we could always see all the stars and galaxies right above us clear as the moon, on a clear night sky. That would be awesome, just seeing the Milky Way centre and other galaxies and stars…..
@JPHET37 Totally. I think when we die, it’s just a bunch of cells collapsing and rotting, cells can be reborn though so maybe ”my” next life can be in another galaxy, without memories of the past, maybe ”I’ve” been another micro-organism, an animal on another planet, or an insect.
wonderful. you are one of the greatest scientist in our galaxy system. and i am a high school student! lol
