Description

In total 430,000 stars, mostly from the region north of +40 degrees declination, make up this supplementary data set. All astrometric data were extracted from either the Hipparcos Catalogue or the Tycho-2 Catalogue; photometric data were extracted from the Hipparcos, Tycho-2, and 2MASS catalogues.
