The Hubble Space Telescope recorded the Tarantula Nebula in one of the Milky Way's satellite galaxies, the Large Magellanic Cloud. The largest and most active concentration of gas and dust star-forming region in the Universe is located about 160,000 light-years away in the constellations of Dorado and Mensa. NASA shared the image showing the location where the most massive stars ever recorded, with about 200 times the mass of the Sun, are found.
