Sirius Stargazing: Globular Cluster M15
June 30, 2010 by
Filed under Binoculars Ratings
M15 is one of the easiest Globular Clusters to find, and ranks 12th brightest of 158 associated with the Milky Way. Its unusually dense core suggests the presence of a black hole, shrouded by the hundreds of thousands of ancient stars, that appear through our binoculars as tiny patch of light.

This is remarkable. You need to get your videos thousands, and maybe even millions of views. I’m going to advertise for you.
Nice job…
I have a passion for astronomy. Im very glad posted these informational videos. Thank you

they all must orbit around Sirius! The Sirius system gas alone not the gravity to attrack so many stars ( 100- 1000?). So could there be an dark object beyond Sirius which does that? those hypthesis are probably neither to deny nor to prove . If you are interested; I have 3 pages called Maya” you can find by the link to my homepage under my youtube user profile, where all the problem is explained Thanks!
Thanks! Perfect-I think , our cosmical neighborhood is of a strange kind: 1. On a star map ( it was from Knaur- a German editor) i saw most of the stars in the Ecliotik ( Zodiak) situated in a ring around Sirius, Our sun ist nearest to SA. -2. these ecliptik stars ( like leo…) seem to have a relative ( downward) movement” around us” with the same period as the earth precession ( 1 degree in 72 y retrograde )
I am dealing very long with that phaenomenon and came to the conclusion:
the prawns from d9 live here
Clear skies dude ! You’re EPIC ! ! !
Bugger.. how long have you had this little gem of a channel..im in heaven
You’re well on your way to becoming a new Neil Tyson or Carl Sagan. Keep up the fantastic work, mate!
I always find your videos epic.
Great stuff as usual. Siriusly.
Thanks TK.
Would you consider doing a vid on the Kepler telescope and how it functions? I’ve read up on it a little bit but still don’t completely understand how it is suppose to work.
Either way, clear skys!
I wonder, it this could be a galaxy, which is being born.
On the other hand, I don’t understand anything much of this remote Astronomy stuff.
Very cool video. And your accent/voice is very accessible/enjoyable.
Great vid!
Another good one
Merry Christmas TK.
It has been a little to cold lately here in Poland (-20′C) for stargazing, but I will check it out for sure when it gets a little warmer
Do you think anyone listens to Emerson, Lake and Palmer in M15?
These are so great!
Awesome video!
thx from Greece!
Tsh, sleep. Who needs it?
Awesome video!
Thanks for another video, I have been eagerly awaiting it. Still dark pretty much the whole day here in Northern Norway, so perfect time for some stargazing.
YAY! Thank you for adding CC to this one, TK! I’m thinking of going back and writing out what you said in the earlier ones to give to my mum… since she can’t hear what you say. Speakers… although dad’s hearing is going. I keep wanting to download these puppies in a DVD-player compatible format and give it to them.
Thank you very much TK.
Have a brilliant chrismas and of course clear skyes! from Norway
Regards
Erik
