[edit]I would just briefly point out that since both the Large Magellanic Cloud and Small Magellanic Cloud are separate galaxies with their own formed regions of dark matter, as defined by the IAU, that technically the Magellanic Bridge would be an intergalactic cloud and not an interstellar cloud, as labelled in the top of the infobox on this article page, as "interstellar" clearly means between stars within a single galaxy, which would not pertain to here. This is clearly not trivial since these are the two closest clearly defined galaxies to our own (the Sagittarius and Canis dwarf galaxies are closer but are not well defined and not even proven as being separate from our own galaxy).--JLavigne508 (talk) 06:58, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
