That's the actual size of the Andromeda galaxy in the sky. You just can't see it because it's much dimmer while Hubble can make long exposure images. In comparison to that, Pluto is just a point, way smaller than the moon in the image and being much farther away.

This. I was very surprised when I learned how big it would be if it was bright enough for us to see. This image should be a good representation I'm told.

Was kinda disappointing to learn how faint things become. But I suppose the sky would glow like crazy if this wasn't the case.

Like this.

Am I only on getting shivers from this picture for some reason?

What about what if it were bright enough to see with the naked eye?
