Globular Clusters

This is the second of five posts on easy deep sky objects. All of these objects are south of declination +40 so they are visible from all of Australia including Tasmania.

Globular Clusters (GC) are easy deep sky objects for beginners to see. I think the best GC are:
47 Tuc, NGC 362, NGC 2808, Omega Cen, M 3, M 5, M 4, M 13, M 12, M 10, M 62, NGC 6388, NGC 6397, NGC 6541, M 22, NGC 6752, M 55, M 15, M 2

The list above is in RA order. Most of these are visible with binoculars tonight.
