The final Tycho Catalogue (ESA 1997b) has been derived from 37 months of observations with the star mapper of the astrometric satellite Hipparcos. The Hipparcos Catalogue (ESA 1997a) with about 120,000 stars is the result of the main Hipparcos mission and has, e.g., been described by Kovalevsky et al. (1995). Both catalogues will be published in 1997.
