raise HTTPError(req.full_url, code, msg, hdrs, fp)
urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

Catalog website at http://obswww.unige.ch/gcpd/gcpd.html is currently 404. From searching online, its been down at least a few weeks... Not sure if there is a new URL to use somewhere.

Hey Mike,
I checked it out and found a new URL for the GCPD catalogue. However, the url query only works with their unique star number and not the name that was originally recognized. To deal with this, I construct this number from https://gcpd.physics.muni.cz/basicdef.html

Could you check if it works now? It does for me!

Cheers
