<h2>Resources for all the Google Sky labs, from University of Chicago Astronomy and Astrophysics</h2>
These include the originals of the KMZ and KML inputs shown above.  These direct links may have updates not captured in our copies above! Sometimes the lab manuals refer to the inputs by descriptive name, and sometimes by the filename (usually a .kmz or .kml), so this list tries to give both designations for each item.
