帕羅馬 12是位於摩羯座方向上的一個球狀星團,它處於銀河系的銀暈內。

它在國家地理學會-帕洛馬山天文台巡天調查中首度被羅伯特·喬治·哈靈頓弗裡茨·茲威基在乾片中發現[7],它被歸類為球狀星團。但是茲威基相信它的本質是本星系群鄰近的一個矮星系。它是相對年輕的星團,年齡大約只有比銀河系中大多數球狀星團年輕約30%[2]。它有豐富的金屬量,大約是[Fe/H] ~= -0.8[5]。它的平均亮度是Mv = -4.48.[8]

基於自行的研究,這個集團在2000年被認為是在1.7億年前從人馬座矮橢球星系捕獲的[9]。現在,一般認為它是人馬座矮星系的成員之一 (Cohen 2004, Sbordone et al. 2006)[5]。估計它的年齡為6.5億歲[5]
