Description
50 light year radius map of major stars, XY-planar projection centered on Sol. Star selection is based on the "Stars within 50 light years" map from www.atlasoftheuniverse.com. RA/Dec data is J2000 from SIMBAD, translated to Galactic XYZ (light years). Tried to use classical or popular names when possible. Data and paths were rendered with NBOS Software's AstroSynthesis 3.0. Put together in Photoshop CS4. Paths generally (but not always) go to the nearest stars, and are more to give a sense of structure. Every star has at least three and no more than five paths. Aqua represents (wholly or mostly) above or parallel to the z-axis, rust is below.

Wow, this is great and comprehensive. Just what I was looking for?
A legend would be nice - while star spectral classes are obviously visible (and that's really helpful), the path colors are a bit unintuitive.
