Let the constellation Cassiopeia point the way to the Andromeda Galaxy.
You might be able to see it with your own eyes, if you look in dark skies.
Binoculars show the fuzzy oval shape.
The galaxy has billions of stars like our own Milky Way Galaxy. But it
is further than all of the stars that you can see in the sky. It is two
million light years away. In the 1920s, Edwin Hubble measured the distance
to this fuzzy object and found it to be outside our own galaxy. This changed
our view of the universe.
