The HYG Database
Submitted by David on Sat, 2006-03-18 04:26.Update (29 May 2007): Version 2.0. This adds new data to the dataset.
The HYG database (v2.0) is a compilation of interesting (to me, anyway) stellar data from a variety of catalogs. It is useful for background information on all sorts of data: star names, positions, brightnesses, distances, and spectrum information.

- HYG 2.0: Database containing all stars in Hipparcos, or closer than 50 parsecs. This also includes velocity information, which was missing from the previous database. (almost 120,000 stars, 9 MB)
