|ob_description=M13 is a very nice globular cluster in the constellation of Hercules. Not visible from the city to the unaided eye, it is easily visible in binoculars and downright spectacular in a telescope. It can be tricky to find as Hercules is a rather dim constellation, but if you can locate Eta Herculis with binoculars or a telescope, head south - the cluster is about a third of the way to Zeta Herculis.
