Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)
Irregular-shaped galaxy in the Local Group, some 163,000 light-years from Sol. It is thought that the shape is the result of a disturbance, perhaps a collision of two galaxies. A number of optimistic relativistic probes and linelayers have been launched towards the LMC by several empires and ai clades.
