SN 1987A was a type II supernova in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf satellite galaxy of the Milky Way. It occurred approximately 51.4 kiloparsecs (168,000 light-years ) from Earth and was the closest observed supernova since Kepler's Supernova in 1604.
It was the progenitor of supernova 1987A. The star was originally charted by the Romanian-American astronomer Nicholas Sanduleak in 1970, but was not well studied until identified as the star that exploded in the first naked eye supernova since the invention of the telescope, [1] when its maximum reached visual magnitude +2.8. [3]
The closest supernova observed since the invention of the telescope, [17] Supernova 1987A, occurred in the outskirts of the Tarantula Nebula. [18] There is a prominent supernova remnant enclosing the open cluster NGC 2060. Still, the remnants of many other supernovae are difficult to detect in the complex nebulosity. [19]
MACHO 80.7443.1718 is a binary star in the LH 58 association in the Large Magellanic Cloud, in the constellation of Dorado, first identified among about 800 stars in 1994. [3] It consists of a 35 M ☉ blue supergiant in an eccentric orbit with a secondary companion that cannot be observed directly, but is likely an O-type main-sequence star of ...
It is located about 170,000 light-years away, in the southern constellation of Dorado, and is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It rotates at 62 hertz . A team at LANL advanced that it is possible to predict starquakes in J0537-6910, [ 1 ] meaning that it may be possible to devise a way to forecast glitches at least in some exceptional ...

NGC 2002 (also known as ESO 86-SC3) is an open cluster located in the Dorado constellation and is part of the Large Magellanic Cloud. It was discovered by James Dunlop on September 24, 1826. Its apparent magnitude is 10.1, and its size is 2.0 arc minutes. [1] [3] NGC 2002 contains five red supergiants, prominent in deep images of the cluster.
