In this article we obtained age and metallicity of the globular cluster M9, using the method called isochrone fitting.
In section 1, we present the object of our studies and its main characteristics. In section 2, we make a general explanation of globular and open clusters. In section 3, we clarify what GAIA project is and what it aims to achieve.
In section 4, we illustrate the procedure we followed (cluster’s choice, download of GAIA data, isochrone fitting). In section 5, we discuss our results. Eventually, in section 6, we compare them to literature.
