I think this video sums it up. I tried to find a more reputable scientific source but I think this is accurate.

I think we would see both the Andromeda galaxy and the Milky Way at roughly equal brightness, and the Magellanic Clouds also. Without instruments, we would see very little else. Furthermore, there are some enormous voids among the galaxies. If we were in one of these voids without instruments, I don't think we would see a damn thing. We would see neither stars nor galaxies — the sky would be utterly black.

Fucked if I know

I think it would be nearly black. There would be a scattering of star-like galaxies - more than we see from earth because there would be no light pollution save only the lights of our spaceship, or atmosphere. The eye is sensitive enough to detect a single photon and cosmic rays can also trigger the light-sensitive cells in our retina, so we would probably also experience tiny, evanescent flashes.

Well, there is also the idea that even at light speed you are speaking of maybe a third or fourth generation born and raised on a ship that are going to have an obviously very different culture and outlook.
But I think between galaxies as that might be very cold and barren. Like the darkest highway ever.

OK, a little off as to the size of the two galaxies in the night sky, they would each be about twice the size of this, that's what Andromeda would look like if Earth wasn't stuck in a dusty arm of the Milky Way. There would still be countless other nearby galaxies and intergalactic stars visible in the pristine clarity of intergalactic space.

We are currently in a dust cloud that wildly obscures our night sky. Halfway between the two galaxies the night sky would be almost unimaginably awesome, with a huge part of the sky being one or the other galaxies (or both) spanning a huge portion of the sky, and countless intergalactic stars and distant galaxies visible. The night sky would be almost solid with things we could see.

Most likely if you were in between the two galaxies you would see the galaxies as small clusters or pinpoints of light possibly resembling a star. Much like how Andromeda looks. The farthest star we can see unaided is about 16,000 light years away and the two galaxies are about 2.5 million light years away. Obviously a Galaxy is much brighter than a star, but the distance is still vast. So my guess would be a lot of darkness and a few sections of clustered light.

Turtles. All the way down. Next?

Are we there yet?

Given that you can barely see Andromeda from here, I'd think there would not be much to see beyond the local galaxy. I'd be fascinated to see what the Milky Way looked like, with the Magellenic Clouds hanging around her.

Without the atmosphere, everything would be brighter and clearer, but only Andromeda would be significantly closer. Even though there are galaxies just about anywhere you point a telescope, with the naked eye you would probably pick out Andromeda, The Milky Way and the Mageleic Clouds. I doubt you would be able to see much else.

My brain hurts now ... Thankyou !

Did you know that Andromedia used to be thought of as a much larger galaxy but now it is thought to be approximately the same size as our galaxy. The 2 galaxies will merge in about 4 billion years.

That's a good thought experiment !!!.... Good question too !!. I do believe the universe is symmetric either way we look. We should see stars everywhere we look even half way to Andromeda. Who knows. It would take us 125 million years traveling at the speed of light just to get there. So who really knows but that should not stop us from thinking about how things work !!

No idea. I'd like to think we'd be able to see quite a few galaxies in the Local Group, since we wouldn't be dealing with the light pollution from nearby stars, but I don't think I'd be willing to make the trip necessary to know for sure.

If all the stars we can see are in the Milky Way, how can we see Andromada?

A mesmerizing curiousity! Thanks for sharing.

Interesting question! But firstly, there are two other galaxies that we can see with the naked eye - the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, which are best seen from South of the Equator; they are smaller satellite galaxies of our Milky Way, about 70,000 LY away. And if you have good eyesight, and a very clear dark sky, and know where to look, you can also see M33, the Triangulum Galaxy, which is just slightly further away than the Andromeda Galaxy, at about 2.7 million LY. It's actually fairly close to the Andromeda Galaxy in our sky.
But back to your question: if you were halfway between the MW and the Andromeda Galaxy, you wouldn't see any individual stars at all, but you would see the Andromeda Galaxy twice as big and twice as bright as we see it now, and you would see the Milky Way as something similar, but just a bit smaller and fainter than Andromeda would look, since Andromeda is a bit bigger and brighter than the MW.
It's just possible that there might be a few stray 'interloper' stars between us and the Andromeda Galaxy, although it's unlikely that any would be close enough to you to be visible.

Putting the distances in our solar system in perspective. Even using the cursor to scroll at impossible speeds, it's far AF between the planetary bodies in our solar system.

Idk? I've always loved looking at the stars at night.

Love astronomy. I woulkd like to learn much more about this topic. I don't know the answer to your question!

I think it would look a bit lonely and dark. No romantic moon to make you cuddle up to your loved one. Those more scientifically inclined would be busy peering into their telescopes and taking photographs of distant stars and galaxies to pore over, write papers and discuss at meetings. Vive la difference.

When we look at our sky we see lots of stars, and the Magellanic couds, which are parts of the Milky Way. If we were far enough away from Andromeda we could see it as a whole galaxy. It is also a spiral arm galaxy. This simulation shows Andromeda as well as an unnamed circular galaxy above it. The proximity to and size of the celestial bodies determines how well we see them.
