Universe Today
Well, Tammy's done it again. Remember the
Universe Today Guide to the Constellations
? Well now Tammy has completed another monster volume.
The Universe Today Guide to the Messier Objects
. This is a guide to all 110 Messier Objects, from M1 (the Crab Nebula) to M110 (a satellite galaxy to Andromeda), and everything in between.
In addition to descriptions of the individual Messier Objects, there's also a
nice introduction to the Messier Objects
, a guide to doing a
Messier marathon
, and suggestions for stretching your
Messier marathon out to a week
.
If you've got any questions, comments or feedback, please let us know. I'm sure there are going to be some bugs in there.
Thanks. And thanks again to the wonderful Tammy Plotner for grinding through this monster project.

P.S. If you want to use any part of this information for any reason whatsoever, you've got my permission. Be my guest. Print them off for your astronomy club, turn it into a PDF and give it away from your site. Republish the guides on your own site. Whatever you like. All I ask is that you link back to
Universe Today
and the specific page, so people can find out where it came from.
