Galaxy
Andromeda is a large spiral galaxy, a big monster of about 1 trillion solar masses.
It lies about 2.5 million light years away from the Earth, but this distance will shorten with time because Andromeda is moving towards us at the crazy speed of 68 miles (110 kilometers) per second. In some billion years,b it will collide with our galaxy. This will be the collision of the two largest galaxies in our Local Group!
Eventually, the two galaxies will merge into one.
Scientists often refer to the new object as Milkdromeda, but I’m sure there could be better names for it. What would you call it? Let us know in the comments!
Andromeda is a really interesting galaxy, and it has always played a crucial role in helping us understand our place in the universe. This video will show you everything that you need to know.
Oh, I almost forgot: our cute neighbor is an evil cannibal galaxy. We'll talk about this as well: don't miss out!
How to spot Andromeda
The Andromeda galaxy is the second most famous galaxy in astronomy, after the Milky Way, at least for us humans! According to the standard astronomical classifications, we can identify 4 types of galaxies: spiral; barred spiral; elliptical, and irregular.

Recent studies have stated that it's actually possible that the Milky Way's and Andromeda's far outer edges are already starting to collide.
