Hi

I was looking at Enio's post of "First Addon Located In Another Galaxy" and it inspired me to create a star in the SMC. What I would like to know is:

Can I Put A Star In The SMC?
How Do I Define It To Be There?

Thats all.

Thanks

Yes you can now and you define it like any other star relative to the position of earth.

If you use the the globular cluster generator (found HERE ) you can place several thousand stars and solar systems there quick and easy.

To get you started, here are the coordinates for the center of the SMC

RA 00 52 38.0
Dec. -72 48 01
Dist. 195700 ly
