M110 - Satellite Galaxy
M110 is a dwarf elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Andromeda. It was discovered by Charles Messier in 1773 and later added to the Messier catalog. M110 is a satellite galaxy of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) and is known for its elongated shape and bright core.
M110 spans about 15,000 light-years across and contains a massive population of old stars. The galaxy is approximately 2.7 million light-years away from Earth and has an apparent magnitude of 8.0, making it visible with binoculars or a small telescope.
