Example of Composite Mersenne Number
$M_{193}$ (that is, $2^{193} - 1$) is a composite number:

Historical Note
Mersenne number $M_{193}$ was one of a set of $6$ demonstrated to be composite by Horace Scudder Uhler using a manual desk calculator in the $1940$s, in what turned out to be a vain attempt to find the next Mersenne prime after $M_{127}$.
