Constellations can be found in any galaxy as they are simply arbitrary groupings of stars in the sky. Over history, even people from the same planet have come up with different pictures to link stars together.
Of course, once you leave Earth, the stars look different because every place you go has a different vantage point. In another galaxy, all of the stars we can see from Earth would be invisible because of their distance. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We can't determine whether much of anything is in another galaxy. The nearest galaxy is M-31: The Galaxy in Andromeda. Its about 1500 Light Years away.
Light Year = 186,000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365.25 * 1500 = distance in miles
M-31 is 8,804,570,400,000,000 miles away
M-31 is 8.8045704 * 10 to the 15th miles away (Scientific Notation)

What else can I help you with?
What are the constellations located around Andromeda?
Some constellations near Andromeda include Pegasus, Cassiopeia, Perseus, and Triangulum. These constellations are all visible in the northern hemisphere and can be found surrounding the Andromeda galaxy in the night sky.
Which constellations border Andromeda?
Currently the Andromeda Galaxy is classified as a SA(s)b. However, new observational data may have it reclassified as a SB because a bar may actually be present.It is not an SC because the rotational arms are tightly bound.See related link for a pictorial of the classification.
What is another word for galaxy?
Another word for galaxy is "star system" or "stellar system."
Why do stars in constellations move?
Stars in constellations appear to move across the sky because of the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth rotates, different stars come into view while others disappear over the horizon. This creates the illusion of movement within constellations.
How are galaxies and constellations similar?
They are both spiral galaxies. However, The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy (SBbc), whereas the Whirlpool Galaxy is a spiral galaxy without the bar (SAbc). See related links for a pictorial representation of the two types.
How is galaxies and constellations not alike?
one thing galaxy's have planets but not constellations another... constellations look like that the stars are close but the aren't
Which galaxy are the constellations in?
All constellations are within our galaxy - The Milky Way.
What constellations aren't in our galaxy?
All the constellations that we see, and there are 88 of them, are all in our galaxy, the Milky Way.
What constellations are in the galaxy?
All of them.
What is other name for galaxy?
CONSTELLATIONS
What galaxy is Pisces in?
All constellations are within the Milky Way Galaxy.
Are the constellations in the Galaxy?
Yes, all constellations in the night sky are within the Milky Way.
What do you call the galaxy that is located between constellations Cassiopeia and Pegasus?
It is the Andromeda Galaxy
What is a Constellation and are they only in the Milky Way Galaxy?
A constellation is a pattern of stars, as we see them here. The stars need not be related to one another. All the stars in the same general direction are said to be in the same constellation, so the 88 constellations go all the way to infinity. If we lived in another galaxy, or even in another part of our own galaxy, the constellations - the patterns of the brightest stars - would look quite differently.
What are the constellations located around Andromeda?
Some constellations near Andromeda include Pegasus, Cassiopeia, Perseus, and Triangulum. These constellations are all visible in the northern hemisphere and can be found surrounding the Andromeda galaxy in the night sky.
Is the Andromeda constellation found in the Milky Way?
Yes. All constellations are in the Milky Way. Note that the Andromeda constellation is not to be confused with the Andromeda Galaxy.
How many constalation are there in your galaxy?
That doesn't make sense. A constellation is basically a direction in space; you don't count constellations per galaxy or similar regions in space. There are 88 or 89 constellations (depending how you count them); these constellations cover all the directions around us, and are not related to any specific galaxy.
