154540 records from the WDS catalog (Release 2021-12-25)

54515 records matched to SAO catalog
139155 records matched to Gaia DR2
9110 records from the Bright Star Catalogue - Harvard Revised (HR) catalog
194 common star names
313 double star reports (285 distinct doubles)
454 measured


If you're a newcomer, you could ask yourself: and now what I have to do?
Ok, don't panic. First, click on the Database tab and look at the left vertical bar: I prepared ready-to-use double star selections for you. Just click on the names, for example the most populars doubles list or the three stars systems list
Next, I suggest to register yourself choosing a username and password: once you're logged in, use the Setup tab to setup your site's preferences.
Remember to input your telescope's diameter (aperture): by means of the Dawes formula I can calculate the minimum separation between two stars permitted by your instrument, so you can filter out doubles too close to be seen.
Have fun!
