M50或梅西耶50,也稱為NGC 2323,是位於麒麟座的一個疏散星團。它可能在1711年之前就被卡西尼發現,梅西耶在1772年4月5日觀測比拉彗星時,又再度獨立發現它。它有時也被描述或心形或鈍箭頭[3]。
M50距離地球大約2,900光年[2],雖然與大犬座OB1星協接近,但估計關係並不緊密[4]。它的核心半徑為5.9 ly(1.8 pc)[6], 範圍為17.8 ly(5.46 pc)[4]。這個星團有508個已確認成員和109個可能的成員;它們的總質量超過M☉,平均恆星密度是每立方秒差距1.3顆恆星 285 [4]。星團的歷史大約有1.4億年[1],有兩顆大質量的白矮星[7]和兩顆特殊恆星[8]。

Thus its light reaches all parts of the Earth, down to a good minimal cumulation 15° above the horizon, on the unobstructed southern horizons of the 67th parallel north. This rules out Iceland and the north coasts of the two northernmost continents.
