Good morning, Rallypoint. Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) is titled "The Large Cloud of Magellan." What if Magellan could have seen the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) at this level of detail? At least Cynthia Croft can see it in person; the rest of us get to enjoy it here. The LMC lies about 160,000 light years distant in the constellation Dorado. The links on the APOD page to the Tarantula Nebula and SuperNova 1987A are worth a peek if you have the time this morning.
