About关于

A sky you can search, and what we want to build with it.一片可以查询的星空,以及我们想用它做什么。

The sky is real这片星空是真的

Every point on the home page is a catalogue entry, not decoration. All 25,717 of them carry a right ascension, a declination, a magnitude and a colour index, and they are placed by those numbers alone. Brightness and tint follow the measured values, so a red star looks red because it is one.

首页上的每一个点都是星表条目,不是装饰。全部 25,717 颗都带有赤经、赤纬、星等和色指数, 位置完全由这些数字决定。亮度和色调也来自实测值 —— 一颗红星看上去是红的,因为它本来就是红的。

The stars come from the HYG catalogue. The Milky Way behind them is NASA's Deep Star Maps 2020, assembled from Hipparcos, Tycho-2, Gaia DR2 and UCAC3. Chinese asterisms are drawn from the traditional mansion system; Western constellation lines run alongside them. Sources and licences.

恒星数据来自 HYG 星表。背后的银河是 NASA 的 Deep Star Maps 2020, 由 Hipparcos、Tycho-2、Gaia DR2 与 UCAC3 合成。中国星官取自传统星官体系, 西方星座连线与之并列。资料来源与许可。

Why we made this为什么做这个

Every life is worth recording. Trace the influences between them — who shaped whom, and what that set in motion — and individual lives stop being separate stories. They become one picture of the whole of us.

每个人的一生都值得被记录。把人和人之间的影响连起来 —— 谁改变了谁,又因此改变了什么 —— 一个个独立的人生就不再是独立的故事,而是拼成了一张人类的全景图。

The sky is where that starts. A star with a name is a place someone decided mattered, and that is the same act as writing a life down.

星空是这件事的起点。一颗星有了名字,是因为有人决定它值得被记住 —— 这和一个生命被记录下来,是同一件事。

What StellarEpic is星辰史诗是什么

An app for recording a life and seeing how lives connect. The sky on this site is the first part of it that works, which is why it is here on its own, ahead of everything else.

一个用来记录人生、并看见人与人之间如何相连的应用。本站的星空是它最先做出来的一部分, 所以我们先把它单独放出来。

Where it stands目前的进度

The app is not released, and there is nothing to download yet. My Star lets you search the sky; My Epic lets you browse a star-chart calendar, following dates along the Sun's path. When there is an app, this page will say so — we would rather tell you nothing than tell you a date we cannot keep.

应用尚未发布,目前没有可以下载的东西。我的星辰可以查询与寻找星辰; 我的史诗可以浏览星图日历,沿着太阳在天球上的轨迹切换日期。 等应用做出来了,这个页面会说明 —— 我们宁愿什么都不说,也不想给一个兑现不了的日期。
