IPTC: Caption	The Tarantula Nebula the largest known stellar nursery. Located 170,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud, it is clearly visible to the naked eye as a large milky patch. If this massive complex of stars, gas and dust were at the distance from Earth of the Orion Nebula, it would be visible during the day and cover a quarter of the sky. --- Image by © NASA-ESA - digital version copyr/Science Faction/Corbis	IPTC: Copyright Notice	© Corbis.
