Hey folks!
No new bug reports from the Beta branch, so we're pushing to public! This build brings your usual helping of catalog additions/fixes while work continues on larger future updates (when we have more to show, we will!)
Some users reported a typo in the recently added exoplanet AT2021ueyL b, but that's actually its correct name!
From Dr. Megan: "AT" refers to an Astronomical Transient event, where the brightness of objects briefly changes. 2021 refers to the year of the event, and 'uey' is the identifier for which event during that year the planet was observed. Finally, 'L' refers to the discovery method of gravitational microlensing, where light coming from a distant star is warped by the gravity of an object in its orbit.
Improved position and properties of 61 Cyg and components
Fixed/expanded data for LP 994-20
Improved properties of Wolf 359 and removed the refuted exoplanet Wolf 359 c, eliminating all Borg presence from the system.
