Andromeda galaxy (Andromeda, Messier 31, M31, NGC 224) - closest to the Milky Way galaxy is large, located in the constellation Andromeda and distant from us, according to recent data, the distance 772 kiloparsek (2.52 million light years). The plane of the galaxy is inclined to have an angle of 15 °, its apparent size - 3,2 ° × 1 °, apparent magnitude - +3,4 m.

Andromeda Galaxy, like the Milky Way, belongs to a local group, and moves toward the Sun at a speed of 300 km / s. Thus, it refers to objects having a blue shift. After determining the direction and speed of movement of the sun in the Milky Way, astronomers discovered that the Andromeda Galaxy is approaching the Milky Way at a speed of 100-140 km / s. Accordingly, the clash of two galactic systems held approximately 3-4 billion years. If that happens, they both will most likely merge into one large galaxy. It is possible that the solar system will be thrown into intergalactic space by powerful gravitational perturbations. However, the Sun and planets in this catastrophic process will most likely not be destroyed.
