I hope there will be no connexion problem with my webpage, and that Chris will mirror those databases "one of these days" (ah... Pink Floyd ...!)
The stars in the two new databases were extracted from the ASCC catalog of 2.5 millions stars (more information on this catalog on my web site).
They are more precise than the previous 1.x releases.
Version 2.0 C is a huge file (33.4 Mb compressed) but seen from Earth, the Milky Way looks beautiful in Celestia with it ...
Best regards,
Pascal
