+
+[pgSphere](https://pgsphere.org) is an extension used for managing spherical geometries. It is used primarily for managing astrononomical data.
+It has no reliance on PostGIS. It is not yet packaged with the PostGIS bundle, but will be in the future. You will find the binaries
+for it in the respective *extras* folder of each [PostgreSQL buildbot folder][1] of the respective PostgreSQL versions.

+To install, copy the files into your PostgreSQL install and run in your databases of choice
