Andromeda (space telescope)

The Andromeda Space Telescope, often referred to in the context of the Andromeda Galaxy, is not a specific telescope but rather relates to observations and studies of the Andromeda Galaxy using various telescopes. The Andromeda Galaxy is the closest spiral galaxy to Earth, about 2.537 million light-years away. Observing this galaxy helps astronomers understand the composition, structure, and evolution of galaxies, including our Milky Way. Telescopes like the Hubble Space Telescope have captured stunning images and data from Andromeda, contributing to our knowledge of the universe and the dynamics of celestial objects.
