"This is a map of every star within 50 light years visible with the naked eye from Earth. There are 133 stars marked on this map." "There are roughly 1400 star systems within this volume of space containing 2000 stars, so this map only shows the brightest 10% of all the star systems, but most of the fainter stars are red dwarfs."
- koheripbal 10y agoIs there a comprehensive list of ALL stars within 50/100/200/etc light years?

(25 pc == 81 ly) Only 213 KB gzipped, I count less than 4000 lines total. Since then there were new satellites which collected much more total stars, and the coming will collect even more, but I don't know how the near stars are affected (probably less).
