Map of nearby potential direct imaging target stars, color-coded by spectral type. Stars with blue halos have available X-ray observations. The yellow star at the center of the diagram represents the Sun, with white concentric rings showing distances of 5 pc, 10 pc, and 15 pc. An animated version of this figure (8 seconds in duration) is available from the online journal showing the 3D distribution through different elevation and azimuthal angles (colors and symbols are the same as the static figure). -- astro-ph.HE
