Name the Milky Way's satellite galaxy that is the second or third nearest galaxy to us.

Answer The Large Magellanic Cloud

The Large Magellanic Cloud is a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way. It is either the second or third nearest galaxy to ours, after the Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal (or possibly the Canis Major Overdensity, which has yet to be conclusively identified as a galaxy). The Large Magellanic Cloud is visible from Earth's southern hemisphere and appears as a "cloud" that lies between the constellations Dorado and Mensa.
