Andromeda sweeps from right to left. The bright star
at upper right is Alpheratz, Alpha Andromedae, which is also the
northeastern star of the
Great Square of Pegasus. Almach, Gamma
Andromedae is toward lower left, while Mirach (Beta Andromedae) is between them just
below center, with Mu nearly above it. Delta is just below a line between Alpheratz and
Mirach. Pi is up and to the left of Delta, Epsilon down and to the right.
Tau And is between Mirach and Almach; planet-holding Upsilon is just above it.
Theta, Rho, and Sigma form the little triangle up and to the right of the
Andromeda Nebula (see below) and above Pi And.The Andromeda Nebula, M31, is the fuzzy object toward top center (pointed to by Beta and Mu); M32 is the tiny dot just down and to the right of it. See them both in the close up. Nu Andromedae is just down and to the left of M31. Epsilon is the lower right of the trio down and to the left of Alpheratz. Phi And is the brighter star immediately to the left of M31 The star near the lower left edge is Beta Trianguli in Triangulum. The galaxy M33 (in Triangulum) is the faint smudge up and to the right of it, while the even fainter open cluster NGC 752 lies back in Andromeda above and a bit left of the star. Lambda and Psi Andromedae are off the picture to the upper right, but appear on the deep image. Phi Persei is at the edge of the picture up and to the left of 51 And, which is also known as ZUZpsilon ZPer. Zeta And is halfway between Delta and the lower right corner. Omicron And appears near Lacerta.
