Hubble releases a 2.5 billion-pixel photomosaic of Andromeda, revealing its rich star formation history.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has released the largest photomosaic of the Andromeda galaxy, capturing 200 million stars over a decade. This detailed image reveals Andromeda's more active star formation history compared to the Milky Way, likely due to interactions with smaller galaxies. The mosaic, covering 2.5 billion pixels, will aid in understanding the galaxy's past and support future space telescope studies.
