All-Sky Star Atlas

A whole-sky chart plotting every catalogued star at its real right ascension and declination, sized by apparent magnitude. Rendered as scalable vector graphics directly from the star catalogue's measured coordinates — nothing is invented; a star appears only where the data places it.

2944 catalogued stars plotted at their measured right ascension and declination (equirectangular projection; dot size scales with apparent magnitude).
