Far in the southern sky, toward Tucana, this luminous cloud belongs to a dwarf galaxy near our own, where it brings stars to life in abundance. An entire nursery, visible from a world not its own. To give such radiance from elsewhere is to give that dizzying vastness the face of boundless tenderness.
