Among the five X-ray sources known to exist in the Large Magellanic Cloud, none has up to now been positively idenlified with an optical object. However, this situation may change in the near future as X-ray satellites point to the source known as LMC X-4. The existence of this source was announced in 1972 as a result of the first X-ray survey of the sky by the UHURU satellite; it was also detected by the Ariel 5 and SAS-3 satellites and there is now definite evidence for variability, including flares.
