Surface brightness: 13.3
Class: E4

Notes:
The Coma Cluster was studied by Fritz Zwicky, who counted 804 galaxies brighter
than 16.5m in a space about 1o across! The core of the Coma cluster is not much larger
than the Local Group, but 50 times richer.
This galaxy is at least 330,000 light years in diameter.
Observations:
C8 at 83x. This is the brightest member of the Coma Cluster and shows as an
indistinct glow. The axis runs E-W.
C11 at 98x. Starlike nucleus with a very small skirt of light.

NGC 5272
Rating: 1 E
Other Names: M3
Astronomical Leage Program: Messier Club, Urban Deep Sky Club
Position: 1342+2823
Type: Gc
Dimensions: 18'
Class: 6
Magnitude: 6.0
Cluster population: 45,000
Notes:
Messier discovered it on May 3, 1764. William Herschel resolved it in 1784. Lord
Rosse saw several dark marks within 5 min of the center.
It is 220 light years in diameter, 10 billion years old, and has the mass of 140,000
suns. 189 variables have been counted in this globular. The brightest stars are 12.7m and
the horizontal branch is 15.7m. There are a total of about 300,000 stars in this cluster.
The sun at this distance would shine at 20.4m.
Observations:
C8 at 104x. Awesome! Resolved at 104x, it fills the field and is very dense. Use
medium powers for the best view.
C11 at 115x. It fills 1/4 of the field of view and the outliers are resolved.
Considerably brighter center.
C11 at 193x. Resolved all across the face. It looks slightly lopsided.
C11 at 339x. Not as impressive as at 193x.
Model (where the Sun is a baseball):
Its diameter would be 67,500 miles, and its stars would be 950 miles apart
Distance (LY): 40,000
Luminosity (suns): 500,000
