Top Ten Messier Objects

for the month June 1997

Look at our most popular Messier object pages ! Here you find the top 10 accessed Messier Object pages; counted are accesses to the main page for each object.

Starting from June 1996, this Top 10 file is generated by a perl script, and therefore has become a bit more acurate. However, as there are probably some accesses missed or counted twice, so that I do not claim this is a really acurate ranking.

From January 1997, the acuracy of the listings profits from SEDS' success in generating a longer-term logfile, so that generally a higher and more consistent coverage of accesses is achieved.

In June 1997, the summer season impacted and let the access rate go down significantly; also again some days were lost. Still, M31 counted 1677 logged accesses, and the least accessed object pages were those of M68 and M70, counting 96 accesses each.

Top ten objects in June 1997:

10 M27
9 M45
8 M101
7 M100
6 M8
5 M57
4 M51
3 M42
2 M1
1 M31
