This beautiful galaxy in Andromeda is a satellite of M31. M110 is very small and its elliptical shape is very clearly cognizable. The whole thing looks like a hazy patch about 0.5 arc degree from M31. It reveals a brightness gradient, with highest brightness at center which decreases rapidly with distance from the center of the patch. Very small, but conspicuous and beautiful. A must see object.
