Die Objekte des Katalogs wurden von dem französischen Astronomen Charles Messier im Zeitraum zwischen 1764 bis 1782 zusammengetragen. Seine Liste enthielt in der ursprünglichen Form 103 Objekte, die später im 20. Jahrhundert auf die bekannten 110 Objekte erweitert wurden.
Persönlich habe ich noch nicht alle Objekte dieses Katalogs beobachtet...
