WHETHER OR NOT OUR COSMOS TOAN END IS A QUESTION ASTRONOMERS ARE TACKLING WITH SOME SUPRISING RESULTS

Even further away is the famous Andromeda Galaxy, the nearest major star city to our own Milky Way and debatably the most distant object you can see with your eyes a lone. It is a staggering 2.5 million light years from us. That means the light arriving on Earth today from Andromeda has been trekking across space for 2.5 million years to get here.

With binoculars and telescopes you can continue to see objects further and further from home. But where does it all end?
