New Picture of the Andromeda Galaxy

Sorry for not posting in the last few days. Life got a bit busy, but for now while I sort out a few things and find something to cover, here's a short post for everyone to appreciate. May I present to you a brand new stunning photograph of the Andromeda Galaxy shown at the end of this post. http://io9.com/an-enchanting-new-photo-of-the-andromeda-galaxy-974863346

The photo was taken by the Hyper-Suprime Cam (a.k.a the HSC). The HSC has been developed to attempt to examine the expanding universe and the long-posed mystery of dark energy. This is the first image taken by the HSC to test its functionality. A bit more about the HSC can be found by clicking here.

  1. I don't know about the specifics of this device, but I could go to think that this may be able to grab some photos in a quality that even the hubble couldn't get.
