Zooming on Star Formation Region N11B in The Large Magellanic Cloud | Hubble

Zooming on Star Formation Region N11B in The Large Magellanic Cloud | Hubble

Hubble observes the constellation Dorado and we zoom on the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We fade to Eckhard Slawik's ground-based image of the LMC and then fade to the Digitized Sky Survey 2 image of N11, and finally fade to the Hubble Space Telescope image of N11B.

Distance: ~160,000 light-years
