Re: APOD: M31: The Andromeda Galaxy (2019 Sep 09)
Stunning image... it is somewhat diffuse around the edges...is this due to gravitational influences from the Milky Way, or one of its own satellites?

Isn't that amazing?!
Look at the detail around the edges of the nebula, and if you stand on your head you can make out "The Running Man Nebula" at bottom...
Here is an 1890's image of the Pleiades, I found...I don't know any details about the photo, sorry...
