# Star Atlas

Every charted landmark on the Krillion Space voyage is a real place. Here they are in route order, nearest first: what each one is, how far away and how big it is, where to find it in the sky and what spacecraft and telescopes have found there. Every fact links to the NASA, ESA or ESO page it comes from.

## About the atlas

- **Depth** is the landmark's stop on the voyage, as the game's Depth readout counts it from Earth. Between the landmarks beyond the Solar System lie uncharted worlds, and the gateways of the Orion signal.
- **The pictures** are the game's own view of each landmark from your ship. Planets and moons with a real spacecraft map wear it, and the deep-sky photos come from Hubble, Spitzer and GALEX (see [image credits](/credits)); the rest are painted by the game.
- **Spotted a mistake?** Write to us from the [contact page](/contact) with the correct figure and where you found it.
