// Binary System Catalog Fixes

// Several binary objects are defined twice, both in the main catalog and in
// the exoplanet catalog, usually with a system name. This causes barycenters
// to show as stars and/or for exoplanets to orbit barycenters instead of
// stars. This should correct those issues.
// For the purposes of this fix, an exoplanet, if there is a corresponding
// entry in the star catalog, will have a maximum mass of 13 Jupiter masses
// (4123.34 Earth masses).

This is probably because the star is not only in the Hipparcos catalog, but also in the 'BrownDwarfs-bin.sc'. There, however, the distance is missing.

This thing baffled me too, but that's how it is in Minor Planet Center and other sources too.
Bilbo/(2991) Bilbo/<other designations>
The first name I give to the asteroid is the name under which the asteroid appears in the 'JPL Small-Body Database'. If the number is in parentheses, the database will not find the object.
