Astronomical evidence
Andromeda is an observed spiral galaxy containing a bright central bulge, a broad stellar disk, dark dust lanes and regions with young blue stars. Hubble observations resolve individual stars and reveal structure in its stellar populations. [1] The image imagines a view toward that disk from an unconfirmed planet in the galaxy's outer halo. This makes a broad external view a stated fictional perspective rather than enlarging Andromeda's small terrestrial angular size without explanation. No local planetary measurements are supplied because the foreground world and host are invented.
The illustrated viewpoint
Small alien silhouette with a folded charcoal mantle, viewed from behind in meditation. An invented solid planet around an unspecified star outside Andromeda's main disk. The planet, local star, snow plain, atmosphere, warrior and viewing location are entirely fictional. No confirmed exoplanet or real host assignment is claimed. Andromeda supplies the observed galactic structure; the sky is imagined from a nearby halo viewpoint, not from Earth or a nearby Milky Way exoplanet. Inclination, angular extent, exposure and detailed morphology are illustrative. It is excluded from the real exoplanet host map.

Apparent sizes, phases and exposure are artistic, not a calibrated sky simulation. Cosmic connection is a visual theme, not an observed biological mechanism.
Fictional planetary viewpoint
No confirmed planet or host star is assigned to this landscape. The named astronomical object or physical phenomenon supplies the scientific reference; the local world and viewing position are invented. This image remains outside the real exoplanet host map.
