@wonderofscience@mastodon.social ...on a collision course with our own Milky Way, as I recall.

@wonderofscience@mastodon.social In case anyone's wondering why the Hubble telescope is named that, Edwin Hubble definitively proved that there are other galaxies beyond the Milky Way -- in 1923. We've only known for certain that Milky Way wasn't the only galaxy -- we've only known that there was a universe beyond our own cluster of stars -- for the past hundred years. 1923.

@wonderofscience@mastodon.social This kinda spoils the best part of Andromeda in the sky. The first photo of Andromeda caused the science team seeing it to call it the Andromeda Nebulae. Because it is huge. Not huge as in a trillion stars, but huge in the actual sky. Other than the moon, no one had seen anything but dots in the sky. Andromeda IS CLOSE. The galaxy pictured, is ten times bigger than the moon is in the sky. If dust did not dim Andromeda, it would appear like this.

@wonderofscience@mastodon.social it's like a Mandelbrot zoom, or part of the title sequence of "Contact" in reverse.
