![]() Our closest Galactic neighbour at only 2.5 million light years away. So the light that landed on my camera's sensor left there 2.5 million years ago. Imagine the civilizations and events that have come and gone over all those years. Our Milky Way Galaxy has about 200 Billion stars, and the Andromeda Galaxy has about 1 Trillion stars. So about 5 times as large. And AFAWK, there are trillions of galaxies out there. Boggles the mind!! Please click on image to view full size.
