Catalog of Nearby Stars

The Catalog of Nearby Stars is a comprehensive list that includes stars located relatively close to Earth, typically within 25 light-years. This catalog helps astronomers study and understand the properties, distances, and movements of these stars. It serves as a valuable resource for research in stellar science and helps identify potential targets for future exploration, such as planets that might support life. By organizing this information, the catalog enhances our understanding of the Milky Way and the diversity of celestial objects in our local cosmic neighborhood.
