Where i can download xephem friendly star catalogues for astrometry? I
would like to download USNO B1, UCAC 4, maybe NOMAD catalog... are those
compatible with xephem? I've been using USNO A2.0 for many years but i
need to upgrade...

Thanks,

Neither USNO B1 nor NOMAD are available for download, they
are too large.

To get a copy of UCAC4 send email to
brenda.hicks@... with a subject
line of UCAC4.

I downloaded the latest files from MPC (the links are shown in the
screenshot), maybe they were not updates properly? I also hit the
download button for Lowell and AstMPC_dim... will try again...

Best regards,
