ANDROMEDA'S REALLY BIG MASS
Look at the stupendous enormity of Andromeda, as seen by Gendler APOD.
Click on images for full size, original at left, enhanced at right.
The Gelder image, when enhanced, is only a portion of the immense mother ship. The original Gelder image (which contains the enormity in ranges of varied image dark hues whose differences between them are too dim to be seen by human eyes, but under enhancement spring immediately to life revealing more-or-less all of what was captured in the original digital photograph of Andromeda.

Above, two different display versions of the same mono image, the different displays cast more perception on the wide horizontal plane with rings in sharp upthrust which comprises the top face of Andromeda.
The vista is a wide horizontal plane slightly dished, sweeping back to the core area in the upper right.
Trailing behind M110 are curved talons tonging back toward Andromeda. Picture a hermit crab, clearly associated with the emerging M110, the legs are each bent at a sharp jogging abrupt angle heading backward.
The hinting is what was a much larger galaxy is leaving a great deal of itself, what we see is some being tugged loose into a tympanic formation as M110 pulls free of Andromeda.
When you merge the above side by side pairs by eyesight, true-to-life 3D is seen in the merged images.
One of the instantly learned parameters is the 'talon's are leading edges of fronds arcing backward into very disturbed regions along the eastern left flank, the western fronds are aligned vertically. In the rear east where arcing backward along the Andromeda coastline, some fronds are reaching around back along a horizontal plane.
Details of M110's emergence are pictured in a Bridge Near Far.
Deep space Andromeda views show pronounced patterns of rippling
in deep space surrounding this galaxy.
Andromeda's core has a pronounced vertical dropstep due to tilt of the core bowl itself, which means the core is far more potent than simple flat disk center theories can allow.
Very important image
When the two seeming dissimilar pictures are merged by eyesight by going crosseyed, a pronounced vertically rising rooster tail is seen in slipstreams shooting upward out around the right rear flank.
The vertical drop through the center bowl is self evident.
These skinny images of Andromeda from a very early period in telescopes can be most revealing, here is a show of the bullseye, it is the target around the eastern snout of Andromeda in the next old grainy photograph's enhancement.
The huge satellite dish rising above Andromeda may be real, I have seen moire co-centric rills, vaguely, in factoring views of the bullseye but was never able to detail an image enough to show them. Here in this old grainy black and white, they seem as plain as day, and are onion in outline shape, as is the bullseye, except the bullseye's rills are much larger, thicker, longer, wider apart, but this may be a factor of distance the bullseye closest to the camera the onion farthest away.
Sorry for the glaring whiteout, it took histogram equalize plus a twist or two of deft on other reostats to expose the bullseye (target) with surrounding deep space which exists in a state of minimum chaos, advanced coherent structuring.

FOOTNOTE - bullseye doppler has longer waves as the eastern hem of Andromeda hoves toward us. This seems counter intuitive to electromagnetic radiation frequency dopplers whose waves become shorter in approach. At Andromeda the long waves are with the hoving matter stetching out from the space wall behind, at the other edge of the hem to the far west, shorter gravity interferrence waves are where the hove is pushing in to the rear space wall. The medium wavelength onion to the rear has to be by the whole of Andromeda drifting forward, sucking itself continuously out of the deep space energy active rear wall behind. |

Striations in the side (which is very deep) of Andromeda evidence a sideswipe collision, Triangulum is missing part of its west edge, the current understanding is Triangulum is drifting away toward the Virgo galaxy cluster but seems vectored, as well as can be inferred by geophysicist astronomers, driftng away from a close point with Andromeda.
Striations in Andromeda
Missing bodyparts along the western edge of Triangulum
Missing body parts under and behind the M51 Whirlpool complex
Striations in colliding galaxies Ngc 3314, horizontal striations are in the vertical highwall behind where the highwall has been abruptly cleaved by the spiral galaxy center settling inward while drifting to the right.

no other Andromeda images show the amount of dim low radiant matter
between M110 and Andromeda, as is seen in the above (pink) enhancments
of the Gendler image.
It cannot be argued that the 'extra' is stray chance capture from the
local milky way, the talons are too strongly attached to Andromeda,
such strong artifact dynamics rule out random chance. It means enormous
amounts of very dim matter is out there at Andromeda.
RED SCOPE OF ANDROMEDA
Here, just to give you a more sincere true-to-life experience of
in-your-face, is the Gendler object (enhanced by Greydon Moore),
showing you a glimpse, not a totality, of just how big Andromeda
is (or might be if ever fully photographed).
Look at how much of the image is cropped at both ends. compared to the
original (upper left above) which seems to be the whole galaxy, but
is roughly only about 3/5 of the whole
galaxy. More full size Andromeda images are
here.
The next image shows two discontinuitous breaks in the body of Andromeda.
The first (in a green tinted hightened window) is where small oval
galaxy M110 has torn a refuse path through andromeda at a vertical
slant across the eastern flank beyond the core.
The second (in dark pink) is tight alongside the core's east side, a
narrow thin ski track ending at a spike
(rod) poking out from under an overhanging narrow forward rim. This
seems to represent an entirely separate body
scoring event.
NEXT
High enhancements in the blue color range, or blue and red combined,
do not reveal the same wide ranging coherent expanses as seen hiding
in the red scope of Andromeda. Here next are other views you can
use to compare how much more is seen in red light.
The above are stereo views, draw the two pictures together by eyesight,
for instance by gently going crosseyed. You will see for the first time
how enormously expansive is this galaxy.
FIELD DRIFT DENSITIES
High enhancement of another Gendler image of Andromeda - this view
pulled back for broader deep space setting - has less DPI per square
inch of Andromeda itself. High enhancement shows deep space drifts,
in bands of different colors and widths, some vertical, more noticable
are those appearing horizontally across the page. These could be easily
concidered image wash, as from photo developing fluids or printing
press cleaners, except the Gendler view is cam camera, so, these
are likely boarder merges of different frames patched together,
except, the vertical wash may be real.
NEXT
Notice an almost subliminal diffuse but coherent roundish shape on the
right end, which in stereo view is peering along the right edge of a
large cresent comprising the eastern circumpherence of a noticably
circular whorling vortex. Torpedo shape (the mono view) is invalid.
Click for full size large.
There is some doubt that in the east, actual strong hazy matter drifts
are filling a vertical horizon, and that the drifts fade right out to
where almost no drifts are seen in deep space around the west side of
Andromeda.

ANDROMEDA IS HUGE!

ANDROMEDA IS HUGE!
I am going to blast the horn mightily about the HUGE size of Andromeda. Picture the Russian Philharmonic Orchestra with the entire back row comprised of tubas blaring at top volume right in your face. This is me, blaring that Andromeda is HUGE!
Notwithstanding that Andromeda's core is said to be a hundred thousand times brighter than the disk (depending on source - the core is even brighter), Andromeda has dim media content that you simply cannot believe described in word form until you see it for yourself, with your own periscopes. The next pictures are for your eyes exactly. Andromeda is HUGE!
How huge? The tiny little brightness depicted in the second picture (right) is tiny elliptical galaxy M110. All of the rest, those mighty coherent gangs of dim media matter under the rightside maindeck, comprise some of the greater Andromeda, and even so, we are extremely limited in photo view to only a small portion of the hugeness, available in the parsed snapshot of the HUGE region underscoring the lower mass of Andromeda lurking in dim (nearly silent medias) to the right of M110.
Get the picture. In three or so frequencies - (say), oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen some brightly glowing because of heat - the lighing of Andromeda shows hardly anything. Reostat the arpertures wide open to all frequencies radio to X-ray throughout the whole spectrum - nothing left out - and, Andromeda is HUGE.
The creeking old geriatric conductor of the Moscow Philharmonic rises up on the tips of the toes and waves the batton in hard rock, feeling young again, and those tubas in the back row blare at top volume, right in your face. Andromeda is HUGE!
