Stunning image of the Large Magellanic Cloud captured last month. It is the largest satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, & is located about 163,000 light-years away. It is rich in gas and dust, and is currently undergoing vigorous star formation. (Image credit: NOIRLab/Petr Horálek) While the Milky Way contains anywhere from 100 billion to 400 billion stars, the LMC holds roughly 20 billion, placing it among the more massive members of the Milky Way's entourage of 60+ known satellite galaxies.
