  NASA’s Hubble Reveals Impact of Milky Way’s Gravitational Force on Large Magellanic Cloud

  NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope recently observed the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) interacting with the Milky Way’s halo. Researchers found that the LMC’s gas halo has been significantly reduced, likely due to ram-pressure stripping. Despite this, the LMC retains enough gas to continue star formation. Future studies will focus on exploring othe...
