The distance to the Andromeda Galaxy is estimated at 2.5 million light-years. The distinction between "near side" and "far side" is irrelevant, since the diameter of the Andromeda Galaxy is probably less than the error in the distance estimation.

How far away is a star on the near side of the Andromeda galaxy from earth?
A star on the near side of the Andromeda galaxy is approximately 2.537 million light-years away from Earth. This distance is constantly changing due to the expansion of the universe.
What is bigger the sun or the Andromeda galaxy?
Lmao, 220,000ly gaalxy vs. a dwarf star that has a diameter of 1.3mln km lmao it's obvious Andromeda is a bigger
What is the temperature of the brightest star?
how many stars are there in the Andromeda galaxy
What is inside the Andromeda galaxy?
The Andromeda galaxy contains billions of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter. It also has a supermassive black hole at its center, along with star clusters and nebulae. The galaxy is located about 2.537 million light years away from Earth.
How will the Andromeda galaxy affect the milky way in the near future?
The Andromeda galaxy is on a collision course with the Milky Way and is expected to merge with our galaxy in about 4 billion years. The collision will lead to the formation of a new galaxy often referred to as "Milkomeda." This merger is expected to reshape both galaxies and trigger a burst of new star formation.

How far from earth is the farthest star on the Andromeda galaxy?
Just about as far as the closest star in the Andromeda Galaxy. The diameter of the Andromeda galaxy is ... well, quite huge, but still relatively small, compared to the distance between us and the Andromeda Galaxy. And I believe this diameter may still be smaller than the uncertainty in the distance estimate!

Traveling at the speed of light how long does it take to travel from earth?
That depends a lot on where you want to travel. Here are some samples:To the Sun: 8 minutes.To Toliman (the nearest star system outside our Solar System): 4.3 years.To the Andromeda Galaxy (a "near-by" galaxy, part of our Local Group): the current estimate is 2.5 million years.That depends a lot on where you want to travel.

What type of star cluster would be in the Andromeda galaxy?
It's impossible to be precise, but I would guess all of them. The galaxy is so large.
Why is the sun an unusual star?
To the best of my knowledge, it isn't. It is a regular star in a regular galaxy which will regalarly collide with Andromeda in a billion years.

What is in the Andromeda galaxy?
The Andromeda galaxy contains an estimated 1 trillion stars, along with gas, dust, and dark matter. It is also home to various types of celestial objects such as supernovae, star clusters, and nebulae.
