This ticket is to formalise a problem already stated in the readme:

  • S-type and Wolf-Rayet stars are currently excluded (42 total).
  • Non-star items (such as clusters, galaxies) are included but have no colour info, and no specially identifying info (i.e. you'll need to manually check for them by name when visualising).
  • All supernovae are currently excluded (9 total).

Task:
Missing stars ( S-type and Wolf-Rayet) should be added.

Additional data (such as whether or not something is a cluster) should be added. Items may be described in a format similar to this:

const celestialObject = {
  // Objects are assumed to be stars by default.
  star: undefined,
  nebula: 1,
  openCluster: 2,
  globularCluster: 3,
  galaxy: 4,
};

Resulting catalog entries might then look something like this:

    {
        "i": 182,
        "n": "M 31",
        "t": 4,
        "x": 109.93196979866292,
        "y": -23.225727595669916,
        "z": 123.09876267296667,
        "p": 166.66666666666666,
        "N": 21282.47630952969
    },

^^ the "t": 4, in this case would then indicate M 31 is a galaxy.
