According to a recent research, the spiral disk of stars in Andromeda is three times larger in diameter than previously estimated. This constitutes evidence that there is a vast, extended stellar disk that makes the galaxy more than 220,000 light-years (67,000 pc) in diameter. Previously, estimates of Andromeda's size ranged from 70,000 to 120,000 light-years (21,000 to 37,000 PC) across.

What is bigger the sun or the Andromeda galaxy?
Lmao, 220,000ly gaalxy vs. a dwarf star that has a diameter of 1.3mln km lmao it's obvious Andromeda is a bigger
How far is the star on near side of Andromeda galaxy?
The distance to the Andromeda Galaxy is estimated at 2.5 million light-years. The distinction between "near side" and "far side" is irrelevant, since the diameter of the Andromeda Galaxy is probably less than the error in the distance estimation.

How far from earth is the farthest star on the Andromeda galaxy?
Just about as far as the closest star in the Andromeda Galaxy. The diameter of the Andromeda galaxy is ... well, quite huge, but still relatively small, compared to the distance between us and the Andromeda Galaxy. And I believe this diameter may still be smaller than the uncertainty in the distance estimate!
How many miles across is the Andromeda Galaxy?
The Andromeda Galaxy is approximately 220,000 light-years in diameter, which is equivalent to about 1,294,833,160,000,000 miles.
