The Palomar globular clusters are some of the faintest of all globular clusters in the Milky Way galaxy, and been discovered in the 1950s on the survey plates of the first Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS). In total there are 15 Palomar globular clusters, which include Palomar 1, Palomar 2, , Palomar 4, Palomar 5, Palomar 6, Palomar 7, Palomar 9, , , Palomar 12, , Palomar 14, and . Some Palomar Globulars, like Palomar 6, Palomar 7, Palomar 9, Palomar 10 and Palomar 11 are clusters of average size located nearby, yet obscured in our line of sight by dust. Other Palomar globulars, like Palomar 3, Palomar 4 and Palomar 14 are giants located in the far outer halo of the Milky Way. Observation of different Palomar globulars greatly varies in the degree of difficulty depending on the cluste
