I have compiled many DSO and object catalogues into a PDF and Excel format which make it easy for me to both print and slip into protective sheets to take outside, rather than lugging my good books into the cold night air.

I have attached the Messier List from the list printed in the second edition Hartung's book. Whilst I know that this list is freely available everywhere, my format might be of use to beginners, or anyone really.

They are sorted in three catagories; by Messier number, Right Ascension and constellation. Currently in PDF files. I would like to upload them as XLS (Excel) but this forum won't accept this format.

Anyway, enjoy.

Here's a link to another very useful log.

You can print it out too.
Each page has a picture, a map, binocular difficulty etc etc.
Brilliant really.
