Messier 79 isn't real. I've checked. It just isn't there. It's a lie told by big astronomy to keep us buying guide books and telescopes, eternally looking for made up Messier objects that just don't exist.
Everyone always says that they can't see a dog, but you've got to be pretty stupid not to see it. There's so many other constellations that look nothing like what they represent, I mean, the Big Dipper looks nothing like a bear wtf; Orion just doesn't look like anything, like ???? It's just nice when you can look at a constellation and tell right away what it is.
