Awesome! Where I compare this to my puny 900 stars collection from the 
"Karkoschka" sky atlas I did some years ago... but I still plan to use 
the Hipparcos catalogue in a more advanced version!

A question: did you define the stars as object pattern on a sky_sphere? 
If so, I wonder how you got the glows working...

See you in Khyberspace!
