The first photo of the Andromeda galaxy was taken by astronomer Isaac Roberts #OTD in 1888.

The image, captured with his 20" reflector, revealed a clear spiral structure. But scientists at the time thought M31 was a nebula, a gas cloud in our galaxy. 🧪 🔭

Black and white photo of the Andromeda Galaxy, a spiral galaxy with a strong central bulge. Two smaller satellite galaxies float nearby, and the foreground is dotted with stars.

Two massive galaxies merging in a spectacular collision, located 50 million light-years from Earth!

everyone had this image as their background at some point
The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which, have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.

Cette image semble tout droit sortie d'un film de science fiction... La sonde Cassini a immortalisé les lunes Rhea et Epimetheus de Saturne (qui en possède plus de 60) devant la géante aux anneaux. Ces lunes font respectivement 1528 et 113km de diamètre. (©NASA/JPL/Urgaković)
