Gaia DR2 - Open Star Clusters
200K+ stars in 1400+ star clusters
Here we go, slowly implementing Gaia's interesting regions into Celestia! This time, we take a trip to the various open star clusters across the galaxy.
Huge thanks to Sirius_Alpha in programming the stars for the addon! I usually do large datasets myself, but Excel crashed quite a few times to the point i had to ask for help! Haha...
215,327 stars in 1481 star clusters
