Andromeda (constellation)}} is a {}-based template to be used at the bottom of articles about astronomical objects beyond the Solar System, located in the constellation of Andromeda. The template is divided into categories of stars , star clusters , nebulae , exoplanets , galaxies , galaxy clusters , and a miscellaneous "other" category.
NGC 162 is a star in the Andromeda constellation. It was discovered by Heinrich d'Arrest in 1862. A few galaxies (PGC 2148 and PGC 212552) have been mis-identified as ...
2 Andromedae, abbreviated 2 And, is a binary star [4] system in the northern constellation of Andromeda. 2 Andromedae is the Flamsteed designation . It is a faint star system but visible to the naked eye with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.09. [ 3 ]
51 Andromedae, abbreviated 51 And and formally named Nembus / ˈ n ɛ m b ə s /, [8] is the 5th brightest star in the northern constellation of Andromeda, very slightly dimmer than the Andromeda Galaxy also being of 4th magnitude.
NGC 7686 is a moderately-sized open cluster in the constellation Andromeda, containing about 80 stars. [2] At magnitude 5.6, it is an easy target for binoculars and small telescopes. [3] According to Johnson et al. (1961), the "color-magnitude diagram shows merely a uniform scatter with no significant tendency to show a cluster main sequence ...
NGC 317 is a pair of interacting galaxies, consisting of a lenticular galaxy NGC 317A (also designated as PGC 3442) and a spiral galaxy NGC 317B (also designated as PGC 3445), in the constellation Andromeda. It was discovered on October 1, 1885 by Lewis Swift. [2]
CN Andromedae (CN And) is an eclipsing binary star in the constellation Andromeda. Its maximum apparent visual magnitude is 9.62 and drops down to a minimum of 10.2 during the main eclipse. It is classified as a Beta Lyrae variable with a period roughly of 0.4628 days.
XZ Andromedae (also known as XZ And) is a binary star in the constellation Andromeda. Its maximum apparent visual magnitude is 9.91, but drops down to 12.45 every 1.357 days. Its variability matches the behaviour of Algol variable stars.
