A Messier marathon is an attempt, usually organized by amateur astronomers, to find as many Messier objects as possible during one night. The Messier catalogue was compiled by French astronomer Charles Messier during the late 18th century and consists of 110 relatively bright deep-sky objects ( galaxies , nebulae , and star clusters ).
HR 7578 (also known as V4200 Sagittarii) is a triple star system in the constellation of Sagittarius.Their combined apparent magnitude is 6.18. [3] Parallax measurements by the Gaia spacecraft put the system at 46 light-years (14.1 parsecs) away, making this a nearby system.
