  M2 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
M2 was the original name for MTV's sister network (founded in 1996), before it was changed to MTV2 in 2000.

 Messier Object 2
M2 has a diameter of about 175 light-years, contains about 150,000 stars, and is one of the richer and more compact globular clusters, as its classification in density class II indicates.
M2 had been discovered by Maraldi on September 11, 1746; Charles Messier independently rediscovered and cataloged it exactly 14 years later, on September 11, 1760, as a "nebula without stars." William Herschel was the first to resolve it into stars.
With its visual magnitude of 6.5 mag, M2 is a difficult object for naked-eye observing (just not visible under "average" conditions), but an easy target for the slightest optical aids like binoculars or opera glasses, in particular as it is situated in a star-poor field.

 M2 Bradley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The M2 Bradley and M3 Bradley are American infantry fighting vehicles.
The Bradley, named after WWII General Omar Bradley, is a replacement for the M113 family of APCs and consists of two types of vehicles, the M2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle and the M3 Cavalry Fighting Vehicle.
The M2 carries a crew of three and a six-man infantry squad.

 Differences in conductance of M2 proton channels of two influenza viruses at low and high pH -- Chizhmakov et al. 546 ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The idea that a proportion of M2 present is non-conducting but in equilibrium with the pool of conducting pores is supported by the observations that the block by adamantanes develops with a rate much slower than expected for a diffusion-limited ligand binding to residues in the channel and is apparently irreversible (Wang et al.
The direct or indirect involvement of His37 in the modulation of M2 channel properties is supported by the absence of a similar change in voltage dependence of the H37A mutant of WM2 at external or internal pH 8.0 (N. Mulrine, D. Ogden and A. Hay, unpublished observations).
In the case of the M2 channel, the analogy extends only to the conformational changes induced by deprotonation which alter the voltage dependence of conductance, the difference in conformation of WM2 and RM2 corresponding to the switch in accessibility.

 Messier Object 2
M2 a un diamètre approximatif de 140 années-lumière, contient environ 150 000 étoiles et est l'un des plus riches et des plus denses amas d'étoiles, comme l'indique sa densité de classe II.
A partir de son diagramme couleur-magnitude, Halton Arp (1962) a estimé l'âge de M2 à environ 13 milliards d'années, soit à peu près celui des amas globulaires M3 et M5.
M2 a été découvert par Maraldi le 11 Septembre 1746; Charles Messier l'a redécouvert indépendamment et l'a catalogué exactement 14 ans plus tard, le 11 Septembre 1760, comme une "nébuleuse sans étoiles." William Herschel fut le premier à le résoudre en étoiles.
