Ferdinand Magellan, who murdered and enslaved indigenous people, was not an astronomer nor the clouds' discoverer.

    Amerigo Vespucci didn’t discover North or South America, either. Most asteroids that are named after people weren’t discovered by those people. I really don’t see how this is a big deal. Names are just labels.
