You won't be in pitch blackness if you left the galaxy as you'll see the galaxy you left behind, all the satellite galaxies and Andromeda. There are several different galaxies that orbit the Milky Way before you reach the 2.5 million light year void between us and Andromeda. What is the 2.5 million light year void? Sure youd still see the Milky Way as you left it. But that and other galaxies would be 1,2 or 3 little stars in a sheet of black? The distance between Milky Way and Andromeda is 2.5 million light years. There's nothing in between aside from the satellite galaxies and intergalactic stars near the edges. It wouldn't look any different because the dots we see as stars will be replaced by the hundreds of billions of galaxies. And the galaxies are are in close enough proximity that we could see them as stars? I thought they are pretty **ing far away. Too far to be seen as stars. --- Here we go <cite>Beyond01 posted [p:908790883] in spotting s...
