When I was in Seattle :) ... sometimes I trip out on this galaxy ball. Fun fact about my galaxy ball

The Andromeda Galaxy gets its name from the area in which it appears, the constellation of Andromeda – which is named for the after the mythological Greek princess Andromeda.

Andromeda is probably the most massive galaxy in the Local Group. This is contrary to previous research which speculated that the Milky Way was the most massive because it contained more dark matter.
