 M-71, globular cluster
Today most astronomers consider M-71 to be a very loose globular star cluster that is a part of a small and unique group of globulars with metal-rich stars.
This class of "disk population globular clusters" includes the famous southern sky cluster NGC 104 (47 Tucanae).
It's stars exhibit characteristics that are not explained by any current theory of stellar evolution, and the cluster remains a subject of active research.

 Infrared array photometry of metal-rich globular clusters. III. Two more clusters and an analysis of V-K colors.
We present new JHK photometry for the disk globular clusters NGC 6440 and NGC 6624.
We also confirm that the reddening-independent quantities, the half width of a cluster's horizontal branch (HB), and the color difference between the center of the HB and the GB at the level of the HB, both appear to be insensitive to metallicity.
The JHK colors of NGC 6440 are similar to those of Liller 1; in both cases these colors are unlike those seen for other globular clusters, field giants, or bulge giants.

 Globular Star Cluster M71 (NGC6838)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Its classification, whether to be of globular or open cluster type, was a long debate.
In comparison with usual globular clusters like M 10, its star distribution is very loose but on the other hand the cluster is much more rich and condensed than typical open clusters like NGC 2194.
The old age of 15 Gyrs is typical for galactic globular clusters, but the abundance of heavy elements (metallicity) is as high as in galactic plane objects like open clusters.

Title: Sensitive X-ray surveys of the nearby globular clusters NGC 6544, NGC 6838 (M71), and NGC 6656 (M22)
We propose moderately deep ACIS-S surveys of the nearby globular clusters NGC 6544, NGC 6838 (M71), and NGC 6656 (M22).
We will detect the newly discovered milli-second pulsars in NGC 6544 and M71 if they are as bright as the faint milli-second pulsars in 47 Tuc.

Once you arrive, you’ll be rewarded with one of the most interesting double stars in the sky.
Star-Hop #5; M57, NGC 6720, the "Ring Nebula." Once you’ve found Vega, you are also very close to the planetary nebula, M57.
Star-Hop #7, M27, NGC 6852, the "Dumbbell Nebula." The star hop to the planetary nebula, M27, in the 4th magnitude constellation Vulpecula, is a natural continuation of a star-hop from Albireo to Vega, except in the opposite direction.

Kroglasta kopica - Globular Cluster M71 (NGC 6838), class X-XI, in sagitta
For a long time, the classification of M71 as a globular cluster was uncertain, many astronomers thought it was a rather condensed open cluster, similar to M11, e.g.
In 1943 he found that M71 was more resembling a loose globular like M68 (class X) or NGC 5053 (class XI), but in 1959 he took a Color-Magnitude Diagram which he found more similar to that of an open galactic cluster.

The GB of stars in the field around Terzan 2 has a slope that implies [Fe/H] = +0.1, comparable to that in Baade's Window.
