Headlight cloud in galactic context. Panels display the average surface density of stellar mass (top left), atomic gas (top right), molecular gas (bottom left), and estimated dynamical equilibrium pressure (bottom right) as a function of the galactocentric radius in kiloparsec-sized apertures that cover the galaxy (from Sun et al., in prep.). The gray points show all apertures, and the colored points show apertures that host one of the ten brightest clouds in the galaxy (red: headlight cloud, blue: another bright cloud). The vertical spread of points at a fixed radius indicates azimuthal variations.
