Description

The completed Messier catalog for your Windows 8 device including all 110 objects with detailed information and beautiful images.

The Messier objects are a set of astronomical objects first listed by French astronomer Charles Messier in 1771. Messier was a comet hunter, and was frustrated by objects which resembled but were not comets, so he compiled a list of them, in collaboration with his assistant Pierre Méchain, to avoid wasting time on them.

Very Cool App! by Mark
It's the Messier Catalog as photographed by NASA. The application is very well done. Would be cool if you could set some as backgrounds for your desktop.

Informative by Ron
Ok. Would be better if it swiped between objects instead of having to go back.

meh by William
Was looking for wallpaper apps - but this app ISN'T one of those. Pretty pictures, nice astronomical data but can't set them as wallpaper.
