# This is a three-dimensional representation of the nearest stars to
# the solar system. The units are in light-years, and the sun is
# circled by a sphere with a radius of 1/3 light-year, corresponding
# roughly to the extent of the Oort cloud (which can be considered
# the limit of our solar system)

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
