Messier 92 (also known as M92, M 92, or NGC 6341) is a globular cluster of stars in the northern constellation of Hercules. Discovery.
Messier object. The Messier objects are a set of 110 astronomical objects catalogued by the French astronomer Charles Messier in his Catalogue des Nébuleuses et des Amas d'Étoiles (Catalogue of Nebulae and Star Clusters). Because Messier was interested only in finding comets, he created a list of those non-comet objects that frustrated his ...
This is a list of NGC objects 6001–7000 from the New General Catalogue (NGC). The astronomical catalogue is composed mainly of star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies. Other objects in the catalogue can be found in the other subpages of the list of NGC objects. The constellation information in these tables is taken from The Complete New General ...
Hercules contains the great globular star cluster, Messier 13. It is a tightly packed cluster of about one million stars. ... Another globular cluster is Messier 92. It makes a triangle with the ...
Small Sagittarius Star Cloud. The Small Sagittarius Star Cloud (also known as Messier 24 and IC 4715) is a star cloud in the constellation of Sagittarius approximately 600 light years wide, which was catalogued by Charles Messier in 1764. It should not be confused with the nearby Large Sagittarius Star Cloud which lies about 10° to the south.
Messier 82 (also known as NGC 3034, Cigar Galaxy or M82) is a starburst galaxy approximately 12 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. It is the second-largest member of the M81 Group, with the D 25 isophotal diameter of 12.52 kiloparsecs (40,800 light-years). [1][5] It is about five times more luminous than the Milky Way and ...
HD 164595 is a wide binary star [12] system in the northern constellation of Hercules. [1] The primary component of this pair hosts an orbiting exoplanet. The system is located at a distance of 92 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, [2] and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 2.0 km/s. [6]
Properties. 92 has an aliquot sum of 76, within an aliquot sequence of five numbers (92, 76, 64, 63, 41) before reaching 1. 44, the totient of 92, is also the composite index of 63, [1] where the reduced totient of 92 is 22. [2] 41 is the thirteenth prime number and sixth super-prime. Its arithmetic mean of its six divisors [3] is twenty-eight ...
