Maps and Images
Milkyway
Extremely high-resolution images of our Milky Way, optionally with or without bright stars. They can be mapped on Povray's Sky-Sphere and make space scenes look completely different. Matching separate images to represent constellation lines, borders, and a grid.
Databases and catalogues
HYG-Lite star catalogue
The original HYG catalogue used as a basis contains data from almost 120,000 stars. I have adapted, trimmed and documented it for my purposes. The resulting SQL import files and Povray arrays are ready for download.
