Re: [guide-user] DSO distances (was: Can it be done)

Martin Ferlito Sep 2, 2007

Thanks for replying Bill.
I guess what I would like is to be able to edit the existing information on objects.
For example, when i select an object and then click on more Info, I would like to add distances in this part.
Would this be possible??

Martin.

Hi Martin,

You can get distances to some DSOs... not many, I'm afraid. For most galaxies,
distances are given (in mega-light-years and megaparsecs). Usually, though, the
catalogs don't give distances, so Guide can't give distances either.
