This is the Henry Draper catalog (HD, Cannon & Pickering 1918-1924)
as distributed by the Astronomical Data Center in 1989 (Vizier
III/135A), with Gaia DR2 source_ids and positions added. The link to
modern Gaia DR2 was done through Fabricius et al's match between HD
and Tycho 2 (Vizier IV/25), TGAS to match Tycho 2 and Gaia DR1, and
Gaia DR2 to match against Gaia DR1.
This tutorial employs the Aladin VO client to explore neutral
hydrogen shells around the SMC; it demonstrates using image servers,
catalog servers, and advanced overplotting within Aladin.
HSOY is a catalog of 583'001'653 objects with precise astrometry based on
PPMXL and Gaia DR1. Typical formal errors at mean epoch in proper motion are
below 1 mas/yr for objects brighter than 10 mag, and about 5 mas/yr at the
faint end (about 20 mag). South of -30 degrees, astrometry is significantly
worse. HSOY also contains, where available, USNO-B, Gaia, and 2MASS
photometry. HSOY's positions and proper motions are given for epoch J2000.
The catalog becomes severely incomplete faintwards of 16 mag in the G-band.
The mean epochs are typically very close to Gaia's J2015.
HSOY still contains about 0.7% spurious close
"binaries" (non-matched stars) from the original USNO-B (marked with non-NULL
clone). Also, failed matches within Gaia DR1 contribute another 1.5% spurious
pairs (marked with non-NULL comp). In both cases, astrometry presumably is
sub-standard.

The Lepine-Shara Catalog of High Proper Motion Stars

Description:
The LSPM catalog is a comprehensive list of 61,977 stars north of the
J2000 celestial equator that have proper motions larger than 0.15"/yr
(local-background-stars frame).
Positions are given with an accuracy of <~100 mas at the 2000.0 epoch,
and absolute proper motions are given with an accuracy of ~8 mas/yr.
The catalog is estimated to be over 99% complete at high Galactic
latitudes (|b|>15{deg}) and over 90% complete at low Galactic
latitudes (|b|>15{deg}), down to a magnitude.
The LIFE Target Star Database contains information useful
for the planned `LIFE mission`_ (mid-ir, nulling
interferometer in space). It characterizes possible
target systems including information about stellar,
planetary and disk properties. The data itself is mainly
a collection from different other catalogs.
Note that LIFE's target database is living
data. The content – and to some extent even structure – of these
tables may change at any time without prior warning.

The 2MASS Point Source Catalogue, short a couple of exotic fields. We
provide this data mainly for matching with other catalogs within our
TAP service.
Within this use case you meet representatives of the most interesting
categories of celestial objects. From stellar clusters to galaxies.
All objects are from the Messier catalog that includes some of the
most viewed objects of the deep sky.
Within this case you discover the geometry of the orbit of the Moon
and the nature of its phases. As special case of the circumstances of
Moon's orbit, the use case introduces the eclipses, both of Moon and
Sun.
TheoSSA provides spectral energy distributions based on model
atmosphere calculations. Currently, we serve results obtained using
the Tübingen NLTE Model Atmosphere Package (TMAP) for hot compact
stars.
