The HyperLEDA Galaxy database

a vast collection of galaxies with precision data for each galaxy


An Atlas of 1,300,000 (1.3-Million) Galaxies

STAR Atlas:PRO includes a massive Galaxy database containing more than 1,380,500 Galaxies and an additional 171,000 other non-star objects including 33,000 Quasi-Stellar Objects (QSOs). A total of 1,551,560 (1.55-Million) celestial objects that includes the entire Principal Galaxy Catalogue and an additional 500,000 (0.5-Million) objects from the HyperLeda catalogue.

Display the most spectacular galaxy charts ever!

Provides you with valuable search and list features. Easily locate galaxies like the Maffei, Holmberg and Dwingeloo galaxies or find any galaxy by name or designation from a cross-referenced database of more than 3-Million galaxy names and designations.

Optionally limit the size of galaxies to display, display only galaxies from the Principal Galaxy Catalogue (PGC), display galaxy colours, list all known catalogue designations/identifications for a selected galaxy.

A vast range of Galaxy Catalogues include objects from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (Sloan DSS), the 2-Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), and dozens more galaxy catalogues.
