M33 the triangulum galaxy [View all]

M33 might be the farthest object visible to the naked eye if yo have great vision and are in a dark sky sight. Its right on the very edge of naked eye visibility at about magnitude 6. the galaxy is about 2.75 million light years away. it may be a satellite of the andromeda galaxy or may be in the process of being absorbed by it,scientists arent sure.
