A galaxy 2.5 million light-years away can be seen in Massachusetts.<\/p>\n
The best times to see the Andromeda Galaxy<\/a> might be in late September and early October. <\/p>\n This is when the Andromeda galaxy can be seen in the eastern sky at nightfall, overhead in the middle of the night and in the west at dawn, according to EarthSky<\/a>. <\/p>\n The galaxy, also known as M31, can be seen with the naked eye. However, with a magnitude of 3.4, the Andromeda Galaxy is best observed using binoculars or a small telescope, particularly from areas with minimal light pollution.<\/p>\n Inside the galaxy is thought to be a supermassive black hole 140 million times<\/a> more massive than Earth\u2019s sun, according to the website. <\/p>\n Earlier this year, Astrophotographer Ronald Brecher took a photo of the galaxy. <\/p>\n \u201cWhenever I look at this galaxy \u2014 which is often with my naked eye \u2014 I think of the light reaching my eye having begun its journey before humans evolved on earth,\u201d wrote Brecher in a post<\/a> on his website. \u201cPretty cool.\u201d <\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
