That 3 miles of google apparently referred to this article:
https://gouldvision.com/blog/how-far-can-humans-see/
This article also mentions the Andromeda galaxy. And about those 3 miles:
"
3 miles: The edge of the Earth (as it curves) is about 3 miles from viewing point to the edge. Ever stare out at the ocean? The farthest point you can see is about 3 miles out.
