            <description>Major changes:

Change of the catalog index format. An index record was previously pointing directly to the RA,DEC coordinates.

Now the index point to a catalog record. This allow to process the stars proper motion for a correct location at any epoch. This also help to display the object label and full detail even if it is not visible with the current chart setting.

Because of this change you need to reinstall the Stars and DSO additional catalog.

This also upgrade the WDS, GCVS, PGC catalog …</description>

This page describes the process done by Skip Gaede to identify the “streak” stars present in some regions of the UCAC4 catalog, principally in a 30 degrees radius around the galactic center.

The streaks were identified during the UCAC4 data reduction and the stars were flagged in the catalog data in a field holding the object type. A value of 2 indicates a potential streak object.
