My suggestion is that you get the most basic of star charts, or even a planisphere, so that you can find out for yourself that this is the most recognizable asterism in the northern sky, namely the "Big Dipper", which is part of Ursa Major, not Andromeda. You are going to have a hard time finding your way around the sky with your big binocs without charts.
