Top Ten Messier Objects
for the month October 1997
Look at our most popular Messier object pages ! Here you find the top 10
accessed Messier Object pages; counted are accesses to the main page for
each object.
Starting from June 1996, this Top 10 file is generated by a perl script,
and therefore has become a bit more acurate. However, as there are probably
some accesses missed or counted twice, so that I do not claim this is a
really acurate ranking.
From January 1997, the acuracy of the listings profits from SEDS’ success
in generating a longer-term logfile, so that generally a higher and more
consistent coverage of accesses is achieved.
In October 1997, access activities stay at a stable level of slightly over
25,000 accesses daily. Again, some days were lost. This month, first-rank
M31 counted 2754 logged accesses, 5 objects were hit more than 1000 times,
10th rank M87 counted 679, and the least accessed object page, that of
M70, counted 138 logged accesses.
