Finding the Andromeda Galaxy
... Did you know that from Australia you can easily see four naked eye galaxies in the sky? These are our "Milky Way", the "Large Magellanic Cloud", the "Small Magellanic Cloud" and the "Andromeda Galaxy" (Messier Catalogue No. 31) you see in the astronomy books. The Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is well in th ...
