I'm posting this for a friend.  Responses should be sent directly to
him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I have seen references to the SKYMAP computer tapes, which I would
guess to be a machine readable catalog of all stars/etc above some
magnitude.  Does anyone know exactly what these tapes contain, and
how they can be obtained?

Please respond via mail.  If there is sufficient interest I will
post a summary of what I find out.
