M-22
M-22 is a large globular in the constellation of Sagittarius.  .  It may be difficult to find because it will be low in the sky for northern observers.  If you can see the four stars that make up the "teapot" in Sagittatius, you should be able to see it in binoculars or a scope as smalls as a 90 mm.
