Map of the Solar Neighbourhood within 1000 parsecs
Creators
Description
This map combines Gaia DR3 and Gaia EDR3 data to provide a detailed image of the solar neighbourhood out to 1000 parsecs. Includes OB star density isosurfaces, dust clouds, young and/or luminous star clusters and HII regions.
Notes
Thank you to several astronomers who helped add to the list of HII region ionizing stars including Alec Thomson, Alex Hill, Eric Mamajek and Robert Benjamin.
