M13 Hercules - Globular Cluster

To locate M13 Hercules Globular Cluster in the late spring early summer. After the glow of twlight has faded go out and look towards the East. Look for a group of four stars that form a shape like a keystone (a pinched square).


Now point your scope about one third of the way between the two stars that form the western side starting from the northern most star.

You are there now slowly sweep the area untill you see an obvious Fuzzy Glow. With a 8 inch or larger scope you will be able to see individual stars.
