Best Answer

You can see a number of galaxies with the naked eye.

  1. Milky Way Galaxy - Our Galaxy
  2. Large Magellanic Cloud - Best viewed in the Southern Hemisphere
  3. Small Magellanic Cloud - Best viewed in the southern hemisphere
  4. Andromeda Galaxy - Appears as a faint smudge.
  5. Triangulum Galaxy
  6. Sculptor Galaxy
  7. Bode's Galaxy
  8. Centaurus A - Probably the furthest galaxy at 13.7 million light years
  9. Messier 83 - Highly unlikely but has been reported to be seen.

From 5 onwards, you would need absolutely perfect conditions and no light pollution.

What is the furthest objects visible in the sky are called?

With the naked eye, you can see some galaxies, like the two Magellanic Clouds, and the Andromeda Galaxy. The farthest objects visible in large telescopes would also be entire galaxies.With the naked eye, you can see some galaxies, like the two Magellanic Clouds, and the Andromeda Galaxy.

What other galaxies do you have in your universe?

There are billions of other galaxies; perhaps 100 billion or so (1011) in the observable Universe. Some of the closer ones - that can be seen with the naked eye - are M31 (a.k.a. the "Andromeda Galaxy", the Large Magellanic Cloud, and the Small Magellanic Cloud.

What is the distance of the stars you see at night?

If you mean, with the naked eye: anywhere between 4 light-years, and thousands of light-years; however, there are three galaxies you can see with the naked eye, two of which are about 180,000 light-years away, while the Andromeda Galaxy is 2-3 million light-years away. With powerful telescopes, on the other hand, stars and galaxies can be seen that are millions, and even billions, of light-years away.

Can you see stars that are not from the milky way?

They can be seen in telescopes. At least three galaxies can be seen with the naked eye, but individual stars are normally too faint to be seen. However, in the case of a supernova explosion in a nearby galaxy, it could be seen with the naked eye, too.
