Stellar data can be accessed with Astro::SIMBAD::Client, but idk how to parse it:
perl -MAstro::SIMBAD::Client -le '$s=Astro::SIMBAD::Client->new;@q=spl
+it /\n/, $s->url_query(id => Ident => "$ARGV[0]", NbIdent => 1);@r=gr
+ep/ICRS/,@q;print for @r' aldebaran
Result: Coordinates(ICRS,ep=J2000,eq=2000): 04 35 55.23907 +16 30 33.4885 (Opt ) A [7.38 5.70 90] 2007A&A...474..653V

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
