Galaxies


Galaxies
There are two galaxies which are only visible in the southern hemisphere. The sky was so beautiful and covered in stars. The Large Magellanic cloud (at the bottom) and it's companion dwarf galaxy, the Small Magellanic Cloud (at the top). The Large cloud is 30 billion stars and 163,000 light years away and the Small one is only 3 billion stars and 197,000 light years away.
