Catalogs of Celestial Objects
The sky is full of interesting and mysterious objects, not
just stars and planets. mySKY has a database that contains
over 30,000 celestial objects. Although most of these
objects cannot be seen with the naked eye, mySKY can
still show you where they are and give you images and
information about them. If you select an object from any of
mySKY’s catalogs, mySKY will display a screen like the one
above. If you select “GoTo,” mySKY will display an arrow
on the screen to guide you to the object you have chosen.
mySKY’s catalogs include: stars; double and variable stars;
planets; constellations; galaxies; and nebulas, just to name
a few. These objects are arranged in various catalogs:
Solar System
—planets, the Moon, comets, and asteroids
Deep Sky
—star clusters, nebulas, galaxies and more
Constellations
—all 88 constellations with star maps
Stars
—several catalogs of stars
