Stars of Messier 13 Cataloged at Mt Wilson Observatory
The Mt Wilson solar observatory completed a catalogue of magnitudes and colors for over a thousand stars in globular cluster Messier 13. About 11 percent show negative indices, indicating minimal interstellar absorption in that direction. Among the 400 brightest stars none are redder than a normal solar-type star, while 85 percent of the 400 faintest are bluer. Parallax estimates place the cluster at less than a thousandth of a parsec.
