External information#

Gaia Sky offers three ways to display external information on the current focus object: Wikipedia, Gaia archive and Simbad.

The +Info button opens a view that contains the local data on the object, and a preview of the Wikipedia article on this object, if it exists.
When the Archive button appears in the focus info pane, it means that the full table information of selected star can be pulled from the Gaia archive.
When the Simbad link appears in the focus info pane, it means that the objects has been found on Simbad, and we can click the link to open it in the web browser.
