Everyone talks about how huge Andromeda will look in the sky billions of years from now. I present you what the Milky Way *currently* looks like in the skies of our neighbor, the Large Magellanic Cloud. We appear absolutely huge in their skies! [Simulated view]Sassy-irish-lassy t1_jdsfn3i wrote

Milky way is far larger and brighter than the LMG. OP also notes that this is what it would look like from an asteroid, instead of a planet with an atmosphere that scatters light, which is generally why we can't see a lot of the larger objects in our neighborhood without equipment.
