Large Magellanic Cloud as seen by Herschel and Spitzer

The Large Magellanic Cloud is a dwarf galaxy orbiting around our own Milky Way. You can see it from the Southern Hemisphere but not like this! This image combines Spitzer and Herschel data to show up some of this object’s amazing star formation activity. Just wonderful!
