Space never fails to amaze me. The full image has 1.5 billion pixels. To display it in it’s entirety you would need 600 HD television screens. To think that all of those dots are stars is unreal, each possibly with their own planets circling them. Also to note. The galaxy Andromeda is aprox 2.5mil light years away. Meaning it takes the light from that galaxy 2.5mil years to reach us. So the light used to create that imagine is 2.5mil years old. Just to drive it home. This is an image of a galaxy as it was 2.5million years ago https://youtube/watch?v=udAL48P5NJU
