Palomar 12 was initially classified as a globular cluster before the object
was considered a dwarf galaxy for a time (‘Capricornus Dwarf Galaxy’).
Today, it is believed that Palomar 12 originally belonged to the
Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy (SagDEG). Palomar 12 is about 30% younger
than most globular clusters in the Milky Way.
