梅西耶21或M21，也稱為NGC 6531，是在人馬座的一個疏散星團。它於1764年6月5日被查爾斯·梅西耶發現，並編入目錄中^[7]。這個星團中的恆星排列緊密，顯示它相對年輕。在星團中發現了一些藍巨星，但M21主要由小且暗的恆星組成^[3]。M21的視星等為6.5等，但肉眼看不見；然而，用最小的雙筒望遠鏡，很容易在夜空中發現它。這個星團位於三裂星雲（NGC6514）附近，但與該星雲沒有關係^[8]，它是人馬座OB1星協的一部分^[9]。

這個星團距離地球7019371824148566796♠1,205 pc^[2]，其消光為0.87^[10]。M21的年齡大約為660萬年，質量為 7033155783006999999♠783.4 M_☉^[5]。它的潮汐半徑為 11.7秒差距^[5]，核半徑為7016493708413034750♠1.6±0.1 pc和冕半徑為7017111084392932818♠3.6±0.2 pc。在冕半徑內視星等比15.5等亮員至少有7002105000000000000♠105±11個成員^[11]，並且包括許多早期型的B型星^[8]。在觀測到的低質量恆星中，估計有40-60顆是前主序星^[8]，根據Hα發射譜線和光譜中存在鋰的譜線，確定了26個候選者^[10]。星團中的恆星沒有險租明顯的年齡分布，表明這些恆星是在一次觸發下形成的。
