Our closest neighbouring Galaxy, Andromeda. It's 1.5 million light years away, but it is visible as a faint smudge on a clear, moonless night. It's beauty is breathtaking but, tinged with sadness, because we all know the only way we'll ever see it like this is through the lens of a camera. Well, in my lifetime at least. There's things out there to be found that I'll never know about! It's hard to put into words the combination of joy and melancholy inspired in me when I look at photos of deep space.
