In our local galaxy group, the distance between Andromeda and us is 2.5 million light years, while the Large Magellanic Cloud (a dispersed galaxy in our local galaxy group) is only 6.5438+0.6 million light years, which is the nearest extragalactic galaxy. It's just that Andromeda galaxy is so famous that it left a deep impression on us.
