Purchase: http://hilaroad.com/video/ This video demonstrates how to find the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). This galaxy is 2.5 million light years from earth but with some basic knowledge of the night sky and a pair of binoculars it is actually possible to see it! The video is designed for anyone interested in astronomy and it also provides support for the astronomy component of any science curriculum.

Man seing how big the universe actually is, it makes life look small and pointless.

Thank you so much for this video. I've been trying to find Andromeda in the sky, but now I know how to. Hoping it's a clear night tonight.

I saw it on a semi-clear night but each time I looked directly at it it friggin vanished and each time I looked away I saw a "white cloud" appear in the corner of my eye! How dare?!
-
wow-this is magnificent-THX a great deal!:)

Thanks to this video, I saw my first galaxy last night! Just a speck that wouldn't focus. Took forever to find it. Later when the moon was up, I found I could go right to it in a minute. 10" Dobsonian on order!

you know what? the hila people work at my school and teach me and my class from time to time 8D

Absolutely, life and probably billions of civilizations are out there however, many could have developed and then imploded, even the Greek civilization was only around for a few thousand years before it fell. So, we would have to find civilizations at exactly the same point in their development that we are...language? mathematics? computers? or more likely WAY ahead of us & maybe waiting for us to catch up! Think of the possibilities!

Wow there are billions of galaxies out there i can bet my life we are not alone. I'm 99% sure there are other planets like Earth but no evidence or radio waves to pick up since we godzillion light years apart. Only our spirits will take us there..in a blink of an eye...like being reborn into a next life
