This is a showpiece of the southern skies, the Large Magellanic Cloud, a member of the Local Group, and a satellite galaxy of our Milky Way, one rich in star forming nebulas and clusters. The LMC is cross between a dwarf irregular galaxy and a barred spiral. The nebulas along its bar and arms show as regions of magenta and cyan, from hydrogen and oxygen emission.
