Space always attracts our attention. Especially objects that can be seen by the naked eye. Such as the Andromeda Galaxy. Its extra weight must be in the form of dark matter, an invisible substance thought to bind galaxies together with its gravity. It is about the same size as the Milky Way and thought to contain twice as much dark matter as our galactic home. But what do we definitely know about the closest galaxy to the Milky Way?
