Tuesday, February 27, 2018: Two nearby galaxies known as the Magellanic Clouds glow beside the starry core of the Milky Way above a South African landscape in this photo by Gaudenz Gerig.

Both the LMC and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) are satellite galaxies of the Milky Way. — Hanneke Weitering
