Scientific paper

The absolute proper motions of 534 stars in the region of about 1°5×1°5 around the cluster M3 are measured. The average absolute proper motion for the cluster of -0.3±0.3 mas/yr in R.A. and -3.1±0.3 mas/yr in Dec. is obtained. By combining the authors' results with the known distance and radial velocity of the cluster, its Galactic orbits in given three-component Galactic potentials are also obtained.
