In going through a new add-on of mine, I discovered that the 85 Pegasi System, some 40.5 light years out, is in Celestia shown to be 1,203.6 light years away. Just a wee bit of a discrepency! :wink:

The distance is OK in stars.dat, 40.45lightyears. Its visualbins.stc that puts in the mistaken distance, so you could correct it by hand in the stc file, if nothing else.
