For years, I've used the 8K Tycho Catalog Sky map that has been available and it's pretty good for most things.

I just found a resource for 16K maps as well as 8K and 4K. They are available as JPEG or TIFF.

I hope you find them useful.

I love those. The link was added to the "Awesome Texture Resources" thread. Thanks!

Ron,

You're right. They are listed there. Not sure how I missed that.

Oh, well, here they are again. :)

And I got the address wrong. It should read "svs" rather than "svc" in the URL. Here's the corrected URL:

Clearly, my brain fog hadn't lifted yet that morning.
