2015 has started off with a galactic bang. NASA has literally released the largest photo ever taken. This massive 1.5 billion pixels Hubble Telescope-captured image would require 600 HD TVs to see the luminous photo in it's uninterrupted entirety. 

The image is of the Andromeda Galaxy, also known as M31, is the nearest spiral galaxy neighbor to the Milky Way, and only a 2.5 million light-year voyage from Earth. A larger than normal galaxy, Andromeda, is estimated to contain more than twice the amount of stars as the Milky Way; which means there are approximately 1 Trillion stars (and quite possibly 1 trillion solar systems) in Andromeda alone.
