This guy found out the hard way: https://theouterlimits.fandom.com/wiki/The_Galaxy_Being
The extent of M31's halo is mind-boggling! There's a strong possibility that it and our own galaxy's halo may interact -- although the two galaxies are two million light years apart.
I use the unaided-eye visibility of M31 to gauge if the "seeing" is really good.
Two million light years! And that's our closest neighbor galaxy... Facts like that make this...
...absolutely incomprehensible!
I praise our Creator -- that He allowed me to live in a time to see His wonders that the Hubble Telescope has revealed!
