Here is the catalog, in Gnu Zip format. Use one of the Gzip programs above or WinZip. Here is the documentation. For individual stars, you can look them up in the Bright Star Catalog. Unfortunately, the website's search feature is offline for a "major redesign".

Navy's U. Naval Observatory site. Of course, you can also make maps with the locations of nebulas, globular clusters, galaxies, quasars, or any other celestial object you can obtain the co-ordinates of. You will be doing basically the same thing that the astronomers did when they discovered the intergalactic " Great Wall ".

It will also spice up your starmap if you include such items as the Orion Nebula and the Coalsack. Unfortunately, most of the interesting nebulas are thousands of light years distant, so they are not within the 25 parsec limit of the Gliese data. Recently, extrasolar planets were discovered.

Try converting these into x,y,z co-ords:. For more info, check out the Extrasolar Planet Catalog. Klaus Richter has a nice Extrasolar planet site here , but it is in German.

An example is T Coronae Borealis, the Blaze Star, which reached the magnitude listed in Yale only in and ; it normally hovers around magnitude The remaining 18 stars can be considered genuinely missing: HR Mag Comment 4.

Some are relatively near very bright stars that may have made the measurement of their dimmer neighbor by Hipparcos problematic. All other data was taken from Yale. Missing stars at fainter magnitudes are in general much less visually apparent.

The completeness of Tycho-2, used for stars with visual magnitudes between 8. And since data in the Hipparcos and Tycho catalogs share the same provenance, there's less concern about drawing stars twice or losing them in the cracks at the crossover magnitude. Gaia DR2, however, has two obvious data holes centered at r. These were filled in using stars from UCAC3. This requires a mapping from B-V to effective temperature, T eff.

In previous versions of this product, the mapping used a high-degree polynomial fit, but it was found that this fit was calculated using a relatively narrow range of B-V. Outside this range, the fit behaved poorly, producing a number of unrealistically red stars.

For this version, the mapping was a slightly modified version of a function ascribed to F. The spectrum of light emitted by a blackbody with a temperature T eff can in turn be mapped to an RGB triple, yielding the star color. See Mitchell Charity's What color is a blackbody?

Details of the data reduction, catalogue construction and verification of the results can be found in Hipparcos, the New Reduction of the Raw Data.

Astrometric Data: The astrometric results of the Hipparcos re-reduction exist in three different variants. All three give data which are similar for every star, yet not identical. Note : one must consistently use the intermediate astrometry data IAD together with the catalogue it accompanied.

An eleven line header gives auxiliary information together with the astrometric reference parameters. The rest of each file is mostly identical to the IAD format of the DVD: it provides the individual observations of this star expressed as abscissa residuals against the astrometric reference solution.
