Almanac Note: If you want more detailed star maps, take a look at Taki’s 8.5 Magnitude Star Atlas, which can be found at. I’ve preserved the author’s credits section at the bottom since this is an impressive work and it took many pieces!

I’ve converted the tar.gz compressed files to zip files for easier access and you’ll get a link from this site. If you want to download each file one-by-one, you’ll get a link to Cloudy Nights. You can also create and distribute derivative works. This project has a Creative Commons License that allows you to freely download, use, and/or distribute the work for non-commercial purposes. It is now hosted on Cloudy Nights, one of the most popular astronomy communities on the web.
