The Largest and Clearest Image of Our Universe…Ever


M31

Thanks to NASA and the Hubble Telescope we now have the largest and clearest image ever taken of our universe.  It is a 1.5 billion-pixel image (69,536 x 22,230) of M31, also known as the Andromeda Galaxy.

On the clearest of nights, and away from any light pollution, the Andromeda galaxy can be seen from Earth.
