Andromeda

On a clear and dark night from a position with low levels of pollution, the Andromeda Galaxy can be easily observed in the sky by the unaided eye, even though it is about 2.5 million light-years away from Earth. The unaided eye, however, can only perceive the galaxy as a whole and is unable to distinguish features within the galaxy. Luckily, microscopes combined with the intellect of many bright astronomers over the years have allowed us to better understand what the human eye cannot see, in particular what lies beyond the Milky Way Galaxy in our neighboring galaxy. This paper will focus on some of the recent discoveries and observations on the Andromeda Galaxy that have been key in helping our planet comprehend what lies beyond us. Recently,…

Some kind of “stamina goal” could be set before battling Medusa. As a mini boss, Cetus, the sea monster creature that guards Andromeda, could be added – or could be even defeated by Andromeda herself when Perseus is in danger of failing, and stamina would be still won from the confrontation. ‘Acquire more provisions to last until you reach the Gorgon lair’ Strength: Another element that challenges the player to be alert of. It even can give the possibility of dying before accomplishing the…

My favorite constellation is Andromeda for many reasons. One reason is, the meaning of Andromeda, being "the chained woman". When some see this, they think a woman that has been chained, but it is much more than that. A some kind of hidden meaning. A woman, chained from something that they believe in, chained from a thing that they would like to do. Even chained from the world. Trapped in someone else's beliefs. A second reason is, the name and how it is properly said just appeals to me. The way…

being trapped in the middle of history, nothing she does has a notable impact on anyone or anything. Marina endures her work in sick Bay scanning frozen DNA and reading medical reports. Her song continues to ask what her days mean. What purpose does she have if she isn’t one of the pioneers that set out on the heroic journey or one of the explorers of the later generations that will be the first humans living in the Andromeda Galaxy? Marina feels herself to be a stepping stone or rather a…

One day Cassiopeia boasted to everyone and anyone how Andromeda was more beautiful than the Nereids, the nymph-daughters of the sea-god…
