The Black Eye Galaxy [See Link] has a redshift of 0.001361, so it is moving away from us. Currently at 24 million light years from Earth
Sorry, Andromeda and earth are moving away from each other, not towards each other.
The milky way galaxy is roughly a disc shape the is around 1000 lightyears thick on average and 100,000 lightyears in diameter. Our solar system sits roughly 26,500 light years from the centre.
If a galaxy is moving towards the Earth, its spectrum will be blueshifted. This means that the wavelengths of its emitted light are compressed, resulting in a shift towards the blue end of the spectrum.
Earth is located in the Milky Way Galaxy.
incorrect. The farther away from earth a galaxy is, the faster it is moving.

Yes. Andromeida galaxy.
Two Lightyears

Approx. 196 lightyears.

each day in space, galaxies are moving at about 170 miles per second. The galaxy nearest us is about 2.6 million lightyears away. But also, space is expanding each day, meaning everything is getting further away from eachother, so in some meaning, the galaxy nearest us is moving away( due to space exspanding ) but it is also moving closer, at the same time. so itd be moving away from us more than getting closer. if that helps at all :p
A blueshift in the galaxy's spectrum - that is, the frequency of the light, as observed by us, is greater than when it was emitted.

Mercury Is 0.000131 lightyears away from earth
