SkyGX

Monday August18, 2008 3:20 pm

SkyGX is the name given to an astronomical atlas currently being produced by The SkyGX Project.

The SkyGX Project is the working group title for the ongoing efforts of a small cadre of dedicated individuals to create and ultimately publish the greatest general all-sky atlas ever: SkyGX. Originally conceived by amateur astronomer Christopher Watson, and currently three years in the making, the SkyGX chartset will illustrate the known visible sky more deeply, more accurately, and more faithfully than any atlas before it. Through acquisition and integration of the most recent astronomical datasets into state-of-the-art computer-plotted digital charts designed with the observer in mind, and diligent review by uncompromising professionals and non-professionals who possess the expertise necessary to “get it right the first time”, it is hoped that SkyGX will be the uranographic paradigm for all things celestial for decades to come.
