Geocache Description:


Fly me to the stars: M - Nebulae


The Messier objects are a set of astronomical objects first listed by French astronomer  Charles Messier in 1771.
The original motivation of the catalogue was that Messier was a comet hunter,
and was frustrated by objects which resembled but were not comets.
He therefore compiled a list of these objects.


Take a look at these objects,
take the value of them


(example: Pix100 (M40 =40, take 40)

Calculate:
N49 5(Pix12-Pix10-Pix06).(Pix07-Pix04)(Pix10-Pix06+Pix05)

E5 5(Pix06/Pix01).(Pix05*Pix01)(Pix08)
