Whorled

M31 (Messier 31 and NGC 224) also commonly known as the Andromeda Galaxy, the nearest major galaxy to our Milky Way. Two satellite galaxies are also in the frame, M32 (Messier 32 and NGC 221) is on the left and M110 (Messier 110 and NGC 205) is on the right.

@FourT4
Oh yes, it's a beaut! Well worth getting cold for.

@SilverRainbow @photography And to think that somewhere in the distant future, our two galaxies will collide and create a right mess... sometime shortly before (relatively) our sun becomes a red giant and consumes the Earth.

@StriderLongshanks
Yup! How jolly, a galaxy party! Can I stay around to...
Oh.

@SilverRainbow Is that straight from the smart scope or have you post processed it?
I have a Vespera II and that image beats my out-of-scope images I think.

@wessexweather
The S30 has denoise built in, but I doubled the size in Luminar.
So far, I'm very impressed.
