Of the naked eye galaxies - i.e. those visible with the naked eye. There are seven.
* Milky Way - Ours * Andromeda * Large Magellanic Cloud - Southern Hemisphere
* Small Magellanic Cloud - Southern Hemisphere * Omega Centauri - Cannibalised by the Milky Way * Triangulum Galaxy - Very Faint
* Bode's Galaxy - Very Faint

What is the specialty of Andromeda galaxy?
It is a large galaxy, which is relatively near-by. There are galaxies nearer to us, like the two Magellan Clouds; but those are mini-galaxies.
Do galaxies shift near or far away from earth?
Most galaxies have a red shift away from us - meaning they are moving away from us. However, the Andromeda galaxy has a blue shift, which means it is moving towards us. In about 2.5 billion years time, the two galaxies will merge.
How many galaxies are approaching milky way galaxy and how many are moving away related to the cosmological red shift?
Most galaxies are moving away from us. Only a few galaxies, which are nearby, are moving towards us.
What are the observations that tell us that the universe is changing?
Mainly that galaxies that are very far away (i.e., from the distant past) look different to galaxies that are near-by (from the more recent past).
What galaxies can you see?
The closest ones near our galaxy.
Where are open clusters?
near giant elliptical galaxies.
Where are open clusters found?
near giant elliptical galaxies.
What is the name of the irregular galaxies lying near the South celestial pole?
The name of the irregular galaxies lying near the South celestial poles is called the Magellanic Clouds. The large Magellanic Cloud is called the Nubecula Major and the smaller one is called the Nubecula Minor.
What is the planet with the most creatures on it?
Earth is the only planet we know of that has living creatures inhabited on it, Although even with our greatest technology today we cannot see other galaxies. There are millions of stars in our galaxy that could have planets near by. With a heat source it would be possible for creatures to live on. There are many Galaxies and highly likely that there is another planet out there that has many creatures living as innocently as us beings on planet earth, although communication would be near to impossible.
How many galaxies are in pegasus?
* M15 - a globular cluster near the nose of Pegasus. * NGC 7742 - a Type 2 Seyfert galaxy.
If light from galaxies is redshifted what can astronomers conclude about galaxies?
That the galaxy is moving away from us.
What is after the milky way?
After the Milky Way galaxy, there are many other galaxies in the universe. Some of the closest galaxies to us are the Andromeda galaxy and the Triangulum galaxy. Beyond these, there are billions of other galaxies in the universe, each containing billions of stars.
