Details on Acronym:   BPS
  
BPS    (Beers+Preston+Shectman)= (BS) = (CS) = (CTCS) 
 Write:<<BPS  BS FFFFF-NNNN>>  

        <<BPS  CS FFFFF-NNNN>>
Object:*  (SIMBAD class: Star)
  Note:In the format 'BS' stands for Burrell Schmidt telescope    (hemisphere Nord), and 'CS' for Curtis Schmidt telescope    (hemisphere South).
    The fields 'FFFFF' (always 5 digits fields) are those of the BS and CS    telescopes, respectively at the Kitt Peak and Cerro Tololo observatories.
