I'm looking at doing that at the moment.

I've downloaded a few co-ordinates of 40 or so stars and will try and put them on a star map. I've also got 30,000 stars, which is probably too many, with a different set of co-ordinates so I have to marry them up first. My first thought are that space is very big and there aren't that many stars, so any starmap will either be full of space and gave hardly any stars or will be so close togather that space travel is just a case of hopping between stars.

I've got a provisional set of rules for Space Travel which I'll post. However, I need to decide what scale the starmap is and how fast things can move between stars before I do a real map.
