A Large Magellanic Cloud Deep Field 4.2

This week I chose to do the picture of the Large Magellanic Cloud, the largest satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, classified as a dwarf irregular galaxy. The galaxy lies about 180, 000 light years away and is in the constellation Dorado, and it spans abot 15, 000 light years. It was the sight of the closest and brightest supernova of modern times, and is visible with the naked eye in the souther hemisphere.
