I use WIKI 2 every day and almost forgot how the original Wikipedia looks like.
What we do. Every page goes through several hundred of perfecting techniques; in live mode. Quite the same Wikipedia. Just better.
Great Wikipedia has got greater.

NGC 6539, or GCL 85, is a globular cluster of stars in the constellation Serpens. It was discovered by Danish astronomer Theodor Brorsen in 1856.[6][7] This cluster is visible with a small amateur telescope, having an apparent visual magnitude of 9.6 and an angular size of 6.9″.[4] It is located at a distance of 26.63 kly (8.165 kpc) from the Sun,[3] and 10 kly (3.1 kpc) from the Galactic Center.[2]

This cluster is located in the outer parts of the Galactic bulge. There is a large dark cloud complex located in the fore of this cluster, causing reddening from extinction.[8] NGC 6539 has a core radius of 0.54′, a half-mass radius of 1.67′, and a tidal radius of 21.5′. Compared to other globular clusters, NGC 6539 is considered metal rich, indicating that it has a relatively higher abundance of elements more massive than helium. Thirteen variable stars have been detected within 7′ of the core, of which a dozen are long period variables.[9] A millisecond pulsar was discovered in 1990.[10]
