Celestia Forums

Hello,

I am Celestia fan and also an OS X new cocoa programmer. I wish to write a star editor for Celestia.

Does anybody knows why the Hipparcos astrometric catalog contains 118218 stars and the stars catalog of Celestia only 112521 ?

and also why HIP 118322 is duplicated at the end of the file stars.dat ?

(see : http://tdc-www.harvard.edu/software/cat ... arcos.html)

Thank you

Maybe chris got a wrong or out of date version of it. but could you e-mail me when you finish writing the star editor? mcdermott964@att.net
