About this model

This is a remix, please see the original for more documentation and usage!!! Excellent use of SCAD, using array of dec and ra obtained from wolfram alpha the star coordinates are simply subtracted from the spherical shell. The Shell has 1 hour demarkations on it representing 15degree's of rotation. This update has all 500 stars in it, rather than the original 200. It also has 2mm shell thickness to save on plastic. Just paint it if you want the darken I guess!
