FYI, My comment about "prints out well on 11x17 paper" refers to the
older, mag 7 version... Have not tried printing the newer, expanded mag
8.5 version.

Some SAC folks may recall I brought some copies of the earlier (Mag 7) version
of Taki's Star Atlas to the SAC meeting about 6-9 months ago, and made an
announcement about it. He has now upgraded the atlas to a fainter magnitude
limit. It prints out well on 11x17 paper, or you can chop it up into 8-1/2 x
11 pages. But I don't think there are any plans to distribute it in printed
format. It's easy enough to print out portions as you might need it, and then
have it to mark up, make notes at the scope, etc.
