#MessierMonday. Today I present M-13, the Hercules Globular Cluster. On a moonless night, it’s just about at the limit of my eyesight, so younger eyes than mine should be able to see it; it’s easily seen with the aid of binoculars.

If your life is #messy, make it better by looking at some of @diekenes.bsky.social’s fabulous astrophotography. #MessierMonday

I’m starting a new series of posts: #MessierMonday. Let’s see how long I can continue.

First is M1, the Crab Nebula, whose history is almost a history of astronomy.
