About Messier 53
Messier 53 is a globular cluster in the Coma Berenices constellation. It was discovered by Johann Elert Bode in 1775. M53 is one of the more outlying globular clusters, being about 60,000 light-years light-years away from the Galactic Center, and almost the same distance from the Solar system.
