TYCHO :The Tycho-2 Catalogue is an astrometric reference catalogue containing positions, proper motions and two-colour photometry for the 2.5 million brightest stars in the sky. The catalogue is based on observations made using the Hipparcos satellite TYCHO/TYCHO :TYCHO filtersid:TYCHO/TYCHO.a → GaiaXPy base XML file. You can download here the GaiaXPy base XML file for the full TYCHO/TYCHO filter set. Please, take a look to the GaiaXPy web page and additional documentation for more information. |
