 The '''Messier Catalogue''' is a list of 110 visually diffuse [[Astronomy|astronomical]] objects. The catalogue was compiled by [[Charles Messier]] between [[1758]] and [[1782]], as a collection of nebulae and star clusters, to distinguish them from [[comets]], for the benefit of comet-hunters.<ref>http://seds.org/messier/</ref>
