The Messier Ten Minute Challenge
M107 - Globular Cluster in Ophiuchus Discovered by Méchain in 1782 M107 (NGC 6171) seems to contain some dark regions. This is unusual for globular clusters. As its distance is about 21000 light years it has a diameter of roughly 80 light years. http://www.martin-nicholson.info/ten...lenge/m107.htm Martin Nicholson, Daventry, England.
