NASA recently shared a picture of a star cluster located about 200,000 light-years away from Earth. Visible to the unaided eye from the Southern Hemisphere, the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) was named after navigator Ferdinand Magellan. Since SMC is relatively close and bright, astronomers have an easier time observing it than more distant galaxies. X-ray emissions were detected from young stars similar to the mass of our sun according to new Chandra data. Star formations near the “wing” of the galaxy allow astronomers to examine the life cycle of stars and gas. Tamannaah Bhatia Looks Absolutely Glamorous in Brown Blazer Suit (See Pics).
