Wingu Kubwa la Magellan : Tofauti kati ya masahihisho

Masi ya Wingu Kubwa ya Magellan ni takriban sehemu ya kumi ya Njia Nyeupe (galaksi yetu). Kipenyo chake ni takriban miakanuru 14,000 (Njia Nyeupe ni zaidi ya 100,000). Umbo lake halifuati muundo maalumu sana kama galaksi nyingi. Kuna mkusanyiko wa nyota na mata nyingi katika kitovu chake <ref>[https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso1021/ A Cosmic Zoo in the Large Magellanic Cloud], tovuti ya European Southern Observatory, tar. 1 Juni 2010, iliangaliwa Oktoba 2017</ref> na pia mkono mmoja tu mwenye umbo la parafujo<ref>[linganisha http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1955AJ.....60..126D de Vaucouleurs, G.

Umbo lake ni dalili ya kwamba athari ya graviti ya Njia Nyeupe na Wingu Ndogo kwa pamoja zilivurugisha mfumo wa awali wa Wingu Kubwa ambao labda ilikuwa la parafujo.<ref>[http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/0004-637X/825/1/20/pdf Besla.
