Andromeda Galaxy

The Andromeda Galaxy, one of our closest galactic neighbors, beckons from a staggering 2.5 million light-years away. It boasts an estimated 1 trillion stars, double the number found in our Milky Way. The two galaxies are on a collision course, a cosmic dance that will unfold over the next 4 to 5 billion years. This celestial marvel is elegantly presented in HaRGB with over 16 hours of exposure time.
