      It would be very, very, very difficult, and take a long, long, long time, even travelling as fast as possible.
      If you’d like me to give you some numbers, if you could travel at the speed of light (the fastest possible) it would take you about 2,500,000 years to get there.
      So I think I’ll stay at home.

      Andromeda is far away, quite a bit beyond our current reach unfortunately. Who knows when we’ll be able to travel that far!
