Dear friends of Astronomy and Science.

New Scientist Breaking News - New observations triple Andromeda's size
.. Andromeda galaxy, the most familiar of all the starry pinwheels in the sky
and the Milky Way's virtual twin, is three times the size ... the spiral galaxy

Andromeada galaxy data http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn7443

Messier Number M31
NGC/IC Number NGC 224
Constellation Andromeda
Right Ascension 0h 42m 51s
Declination +41° 16' 57"
Distance c.2,300,000 light years c.700,000 parsecs
Magnitude Apparent: +3.5
Mean Diameter Apparent: 5° 12' Actual: c.200,000 light years
Hubble Type Spiral class b

Note: the diameter value above refers to the maximum extent of the galaxy's
halo. The brighter central parts are approximately 3° in diameter, corresponding
to an actual value of about 120,000 light years

Distance c.2,300,000 light years
New size Size 220,000

So what actualy has happened was the distance was incorrect and now corrected?
or the angular size was incorrect and corrected? Or both corrected and the Mass
and gravitation is bigger than we thought? Or an even big blunder mistake again
than before?

We had conversation with NASA scientists and astronomers for the correction of
the size of Andromeda galaxy 2years ago. apparent angular size of 178' wich
was about 3 degree size (about 5.75 sun size)

and on recent data diameter / distance gives us 220,000 light years / 2,300,000
light years = 0.09652 = anti tan 5.346 degree =320.75' (about 10.38 sun size)

So naturally with the change of Distance and or a mass recalculations the
gravitational pull of Andromeda will be greater than previously thought and so
And all calculations of colliding Andromeda (Deviyani )and milky way (mandakini)
is all incorrect and nor it will be quicker and more closer than that was
thought before. so hope fully Collision of galaxy will destroy life and whole of
the solar system sooner than expected 2bn years and sun will not survive more
than that and sun life span is needed to be recalculated again.
