About this image

Satellite of M31. Large. Very clearly elongated. The central area is brighter and also elongated in the same direction as the whole. An interesting contrast with nearby M32. Both galaxies are the same magnitude, but the SB of M110 is 1.2 mags fainter than M32. M32 looks considerably brighter.
