Frequently Asked Questions

What is an astronomical catalogue?

An astronomical catalogue is a list or tabulation of astronomical objects, typically grouped together because they share a common type, morphology, origin, means of detection, or method of discovery. Astronomical catalogs are usually the result of an astronomical survey of some kind.

What are the different types of star catalogues?

The oldest and largest are star catalogues. Hundreds have been published, including general ones and special ones for such items as infrared stars, variable stars, giant stars, multiple star systems, star clusters, and so forth. General catalogs for deep space objects or for objects other than stars are also large.

What are the best databases for astronomical data?

NASA Extragalactic Database (NED) Includes a good list of links to other databases ADC Astronomical Data Center The ADC acquires, verifies, formats, documents, and distributes files containing astronomical data in computer-readable form and develops and maintains software tools, such as their Catalog Browser to access these data.

When were the first star catalogues created?

The earliest known star catalogues are from 1500 BCE Sumerian and Chinese cultures, but they do little more than record the names of stars. It wasn’t until 370 BCE, when Greek astronomer Eudoxus of Cnidus wrote his Phaenomena, that there was a full catalogue of classical constellations visible from the latitude of the Mediterranean.
