Description (from ADC):
This Perth 70 "A Catalogue of Positions of 24900 Stars" contains
accurate positions and magnitudes of 24871 reference stars, mostly in
the Southern Hemisphere, plus other useful data such as approximate
proper motions, radial velocities, and parallaxes. The Perth 70 is a
result of meridian circle observations made by the Hamburg Observatory
expedition to Perth as part of the international effort on Southern
Reference Stars (SRS). The catalog described here provides the mean
values for each star, including the position, magnitude, and mean
epoch of observation; the proper motions, however, were neither
observed nor recomputed from comparing the Perth positions to older
material.
