High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Pierre François André Méchain (16 August 1744, Laon, Aisne ? 20 September 1804) was a French astronomer and surveyor who, with Charles Messier, was a major contributor to the early study of deep sky objects and comets.Pierre Méchain was born in Laon, the son of the ceiling designer and plasterer Pierre François Méchain. He displayed mental gifts in mathematics and physics but had to give up his studies for lack of money. However, his talents in astronomy were noticed by Joseph Jérôme Lalande, for whom he became a friend and proof-reader. Lalande then secured a position for him with the Naval Depot of Maps at Versailles, where he worked through the 1770s engaged in hydrographic work and coastline surveying. It was during this time -- approximately 1774 -- that he met Charles Messier, with whom he also became friends. In this year he also produced his first astronomical work, a paper on an occultation of Aldebaran by the Moon.
