M92 is a splendid object, visible to the naked eye under very good conditions and a showpiece for every optics. It is only slightly less bright but about 1/3 less extended than M13: its diameter is about 109 light years, and its mass is roughly equal to 330,000 suns. According to newer sources, M92 is about 26,000 light years distant, only little more than its brighter apparent neighbor M13.
