to bottom         A BRIDGE NEAR FAR - BETWEEN NGC 205 AND ANDROMEDA




A photo
enhanced reveals
a definative bridge of trailing
matter linking small elliptical galaxy M110
to Andromeda. A second image seems
to show stretched out globular
clusters in M110's hazy
diffuse envelope
(next image)


NGC 205
itself is a
lot larger. This
image next showing a hot
tiny core within the diffuse ellictical
elongated shell is surrounded by a much larger
halo of hidden mass, as the next original,
and image enhancement instantly show





An odd
characteristic
in the enhanced image shows
that many of the globular clusters on the
left side seem to be elongated, the elongated vector
roughly in a southwest to northeast incline aimed toward
the vertical center line of the image. An enhancement
reveals that many of the globular clusters are
most certainly elongated in this image,
the fact that many of the clusters
are point circular rules out
the possibility that the
elongations were
caused by
drift
of the
telescope
capturing local
Milky Way stars drifting by
