APOD 2.7

http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap100109.html

This picture was interesting to me because it showed the Andromeda galaxy, also known as M31. The picture of the Andromeda Galaxy was in much higher quality than I am used to seeing. Usually, I can only see a whitish blob, but with this picture, it is much easier to see where the concentration of stars is and that the Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, like the Milky Way.
