The Guide Star Catalog is an online catalog of stars produced for the purpose of accurately positioning and identifying stars satisfactory for use as guide stars by the Hubble Space Telescope program. The first version of the catalog was produced in the late 1980s by digitizing photographic plates and contained about 20 million stars, out to about magnitude 15. The latest version of this catalog contains information for 945,592,683 stars, out to magnitude 21.
USNO-B1.0 is an all-sky catalog created by research and operations astrophysicists at the U.S. Naval Observatory, that presents positions, proper motions, magnitudes in various optical passbands, and star/galaxy estimators for 1,042,618,261objects.

Which star map (sc001 or sc002) contains stars never seen in Seattle Washington?
To determine which star map contains stars never seen in Seattle, Washington, one would need to compare the celestial coordinates of the stars in each map with the geographical location of Seattle. Stars that are circumpolar or located below the horizon in Seattle would not be visible from that location. Without specific details about the stars included in maps sc001 and sc002, it's impossible to definitively state which one contains stars unseen from Seattle.
Why can't you use the same star map to show all of the stars that are visible to everyone on the Earth?
A star map cannot show all stars visible to everyone on Earth because different locations on the planet have varying horizons and perspectives due to curvature and atmospheric conditions. Additionally, the rotation of the Earth causes different stars to be visible at different times of the year and from different latitudes. Consequently, a star map is typically tailored to specific locations and times, reflecting only the stars visible from that vantage point.
What word could form a compound word with map race hog?
The word that can form a compound word with "map," "race," and "hog" is "star." This creates the compound words "star map," "star race," and "star hog."
