  Charles Messier
Messier as loyal employee stated: "I was a loyal servant of M. Delisle, I lived with him in his house, and I conformed with his command." When Delisle finally announced the discovery on April 1, 1759, it was not believed by the other French astronomers (perhaps they took it as an April Fool's joke).
Messier's comet search led to a further success on January 7, 1785, when he discovered comet 1785 I Messier-Mechain, when it was about 6.5 magnitudes bright; this one was visible for about 5 weeks.
Messier was appointed as associate editor of the Connaissance des Temps in 1785, and hold this post for five years until 1790.
