The open cluster NGC 1910 can be found inside one of these astronomical objects and features the hypergiant S Doradus.
The open cluster NGC 1910 can be found inside one of these astronomical objects and features the hypergiant S Doradus. That one of these astronomical objects is home to LMC X-3, a likely candidate for a black hole. Henrietta Swan Leavitt examined variable stars in these bodies to derive the period-luminosity relation. The Tarantula Nebula is found inside one of these astronomical bodies and was where the supernova SN1987A occurred. A high-velocity "stream" of gas originating from these bodies intersects the (*) Milky Way's south pole and suggests that these bodies will merge with the Milky Way, around which they rotate. The fifth and seventh closest galaxies are, for 10 points, what pair of dwarf galaxies named for a Portuguese explorer?
