Thank you for your reply. The chara.gsu.edu website is very
interesting, although (as you note), limited for my purposes. However,
unlike the Hipparcos data, this website includes the common names of
the stars.
I should mention that I'm not an astronomer, and I'm looking for this
data to share with others who are most likely also not astronomers. So,
arcsecond calculations of parallax are beyond me. My preference (and I
should have been clearer with the original post) is to have a list with
the common names of the stars (or other objects), indicating light-year
distance. An additional preference is *visible* stars that can be seen
with the naked eye (yes, that severely cuts down the data set, and I
apologize for not mentioning that previously).
advTHANKSance,
