M12Messier 12,也称为NGC 6218,是在星座蛇夫座的一个球状星团。它是由法国天文学家夏尔·梅西耶于1764年5月30日发现的,他将其描述为“没有恒星的星云”[8]。在黑暗的条件下,用双筒望远镜可以看到这个微弱地星团。解析恒星成员需要一架孔径为8英寸(20厘米)或更大的望远镜[9]。使用10英寸(25 cm)望远镜,颗粒核的直径为3弧分),周围环绕着10的恒星晕[8]

M12大致位于星团M10的西北方3°[9],在恒星列肆二(蛇夫座λ)°东南偏东,相距5.6°。它也位于6等星列肆增四(蛇夫座12)的附近[10]。星团距离地球16,400光年(5,000秒差距)[3],空间的直径约为75光年。M12最亮的恒星视星等为12等。M10和M12彼此间的距离只有几千光年,星团互看对方的是星等大约都是4.5等[10],在夏普力-索耶集中度分类法的评级为IX[1],是一个松散的球状星团,因而曾经被认为是一个紧密集中的疏散星团。在这个星团中已经记录了13颗变星。M12正以16公里/秒的速度向我们逼近[11]

M12

2006年发表的一项研究得出结论,该星团的低质量恒星数量异常少。作者推测,它们是通过穿过银河系相对富含物质的平面而被从星团中剥离出去的[12]
