The Cape Photographic Catalogue (CPC) is a star catalogue containing 68,467 stars in the Southern Hemisphere whose declinations are either between −30° and −40° or between −52° and −90°. It contains positions, proper motions, magnitudes, and spectral types, and was published by the Cape Observatory between 1954 and 1968.[1]
