They are bright enough that I got a great picture with my cell phone. And I live in a major metropolitan area. Much light pollution. No idea how to post it ☹

For context in these trying times. THIS is the Andromeda Galaxy, our nearest galactic neighbor. To Scale against a terrestrial backdrop as it would appear without the light pollution and if we had more powerful eyes.

Post it on Facebook on some public forum, if you don’t want to post the url from your personal page.

Then you can copy the URL of the public forum and paste it here.

In order to post images here they first have to have been uploaded from your PC or other device to some website that allows you to upload images. Once you do that, go to the following FR Help page for directions on how to grab the image’s url so you can stick it into the HTML code for posting images here.
