I thought I used used Megapov for the "only" date() function.
No one has argued that point yet.

Megapov glow was used in case it was anymore efficient to a scripted glow.
If you take a look a Rune's Particle System you'd see something like this:

Other distance data and all that exists on it perhaps is thanks to CalTech.
http://nedwww.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/NED1D/
6 megabytes 1,210 galaxies
intro.html describes a previously published page with 10 distance method
columns.
Seems to have been reduced to a single 4th column Mpc.
So ignore certain stuff on intro.html
With anyone's version my first question was always, how far?

With computer power and intelligent device 6meg turns into 26k
newned.inc (just some data)

checked for duplicate ra/dec and names

your x and y vector lengths for a circular area light
Is that length input the radius or diameter? lookin at this partial eclipse I am
thinking I have no idea.
another way to put it,
using diameter of the sun for vector length, the shadow appears about 2+ times
the size of the moon. is that about right?
hmmm.. more research ... needed

"In a lunar eclipse, if the width of the shadow of the Earth is twice the width
of the Moon, then the width of the Earth itself is (very nearly) three times
...."
http://www-istp.gsfc.nasa.gov/stargaze/Sshadow.htm
Need dates and photos of partials or look in August to really check orbit
accuracy. I figured it was diameter and must be close depending on what pov
does after that. Looked like the moon was heading for a full eclipse :(

Limit to objects in frame and pull out the stops.
Text knows about FOV, cam angle can be changed now.
angle 35
This in under 10 minutes
Much superior to previous zips

> 87,000-star cat. HYGfull.csv 9 megabytes, to the 3rd decimal = 5 meg file
3 hrs of overkill it was mostly rendering.
something more reasonable would be to separate HYG into HD, Hipparcos and
Gliese.
(HR=0)
FlamBayer+Gliese = 5516 + HP = 9423
But keep apart for separation into smaller cats if needed:
#declare Cat=array[5516+3907][7]
(HD was 78052 of 87475)
