Star Maps

@:) I bought a copy of the computer game Frontier: Elite II because

@:) sure if all of the stars were real).

  I would expect you could visit them all if that's what you mean.
Whether they were stars that are actually in the sky - I dunno.  I
haven't played this but I was a big fan of the original Elite and it
sounds like they turned that game's radar system into a starmap -
interesting idea.  I still think Elite's 3D combat system was better
than that found in most modern video games.  Maybe they patented the
stuff or something - can't think why else no one would have used it
since.
