The BeStars project contains (1) the complete catalogue of classical Be stars, BeSC, with some of their fundamental stellar parameters, and (2) a database, BeSS, which assembles classical Be star spectra obtained by professional and amateur astronomers at any wavelength, epoch, and spectral resolution.

The First Byurakan Survey (FBS) is the largest and the first systematic objective prism survey of the extragalactic sky. It covers 17,000 sq.deg. in the Northern sky together with a high galactic latitudes region in the Southern sky. The FBS has been carried out by B.E. Markarian, V.A. Lipovetski and J.A. Stepanian in 1965-1980 with the Byurakan Observatory 102/132/213 cm (40"/52"/84") Schmidt telescope using 1.5 deg. prism. Each FBS plate contains low-dispersion spectra of some 15,000-20,000 objects; the whole survey consists of about 20,000,000 objects.
