The Caldwell Catalogue on Microsoft Access
The Caldwell Catalogue is a list of 109 deep-sky objects devised by the late
Sir Patrick Moore which was first published in 1995.
It is similar, in concept, to the Messier Catalogue but it also features deep-sky objects
in the Southern Celestial Hemisphere which cannot be viewed from the UK.
If you are au fait with MS Access you will be able to apply the search and query tools
directly to the programme file to investigate aspects of the Caldwell Catalogue.
Some demonstrations on how the file can be used to study the Caldwell Catalogue
have been given so that people who do not have the database can still benefit from
its features.
Please note that the Microsoft Office Access file is version 2007 which should
update automatically on later versions of the software.
The Messier Catalogue on Microsoft Access
The Messier Catalogue is a list of 110 deep-sky objects which was initiated by
Charles Messier. The original list, which was published in 1774, comprised
45 objects and has been added to over the years.
If you have MS Access you will be able to apply the search and query tools
directly to the programme file to investigate aspects of the Messier Catalogue.
Some demonstrations on how the file can be used to study the Messier Catalogue
have been given so that people who do not have the database can still benefit from
its features.

Molecular Clouds on Microsoft Access
This sample database comprises 84 molecular clouds of which 33 are available
for investigation on Stellarium.
If you have MS Access you will be able to apply the search and query tools
directly to the programme file to investigate aspects of these molecular clouds.
Some demonstrations on how the file can be used to study molecular clouds
have been given so that people who do not have the database can still benefit from
its features.
There is also an exploration of the spectacular molecular clouds MBM 54 and MBM 8.
