Try reading the scripting guides on Wikibooks. In this case you want to write a script that goes through every galaxy in Celestia's database, and marks each galaxy that has a distance less than or equal to 10 million light-years.

Actually Gurren made this list, which I think includes all Celestia galaxies within 10 million light-years:
