Top Ten Messier Objects

for the month May 1996

The top-ten are determined approximatively by looking into the SEDS statistics file (which gives the accesses since its about weekly new launch) for the main object page in our Messier database. This is done several times a month to give an approximately good estimation, but this preliminary service does not claim it is not erroneous. I'll probably work out a better tool at some time.

This month, this list is less reliable than usual, as (a) the statistics was not continuously working (b) the author was absent for some days. It is hoped that it is still of interest.
