Hubble Globular Cluster NGC 1841
NASA / ESA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured this image of a densely populated globular cluster known as NGC 1841, located 162,000 light-years from Earth within the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). On a related note, the Milky Way galaxy is actually orbited by tens of known satellite galaxies that are far closer than Andromeda, the largest and brightest of which is the LMC.
