Bypassing the Magellanic Cloud
Science, 1999ASTRONOMYAs the tug-of-war continues over the distance to a nearby galaxy called the Large Magellanic Cloud--a first step in the cosmic distance ladder ([see main text][1])--a few astronomers have boldly tried to leapfrog it. They are using clever geometric techniques to get absolute distances to more remote galaxies.

In recent years astronomers have found a number of surprises in the structure of the Magellanic clouds themselves. Tides raised by their interaction with each other and with the Milky Way have distorted their form, and there is now a long tendril of gas and stars extending between the LMC and the SMC.

Abstract In 1519 the Portuguese sea captain Fernão de Magalhães, whom we call Ferdinand Magellan, commanding a fleet of five small ships, sailed under the flag of Spain to circumnavigate the globe. His purpose was to expand the Spanish empire. A papal bull of 1493 had divided the New World according to a line of longitude running through
