SUMMARY:Messier Marathon 2022
DESCRIPTION:Are you new to astronomy and looking for a challenge? Been around the sun a few times and are ready to up your stargazing street cred? There’s no better way than to try and run a Messier Marathon.\nThe Messier objects are a collection of deep space objects catalogued by French astronomer Charles Messier in his Catalogue des Nébuleuses et des Amas d’Étoiles (“Catalogue of Nebulae and Star Clusters”)\, originally published in 1771. The Messier objects themselves vary: in the catalog\, you’ll find galaxies in a variety of forms\, different kinds of nebulas\, open star clusters\, and globular star clusters. There are also a few unique objects: one supernova remnant (M1)\, one-star cloud (M24\, our own galaxy)\, and one double star (M40). \nIn a Messier Marathon\, you try and see all 110 Messier objects in a single night. Like a physical marathon\, it takes planning and pacing to quickly move through over 100 deep space objects in a single night. \nWhatever draws you to learn more about the Messier Marathon\, you’re not alone. Every year\, hundreds of astronomers undertake the challenge and head on out to the Schoolyard Observatory for some or all of the Messier Marathon where we will be attempting to discover all possible Messier objects with a number of telescopes and other amazing information on each object. Reservations are donation-based to help promote our fundraising efforts in order to upgrade our failing telescope.
