The H I Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS) is a large survey for neutral atomic hydrogen (H I). Most of the data was taken between 1997 and 2002 using CSIRO's 64 m Parkes Telescope. HIPASS covered 71% of the sky and identified more than 5000 galaxies; the major galaxy catalogs are: the "HIPASS Bright Galaxy Catalog", the southern HIPASS catalog (HICAT), and the northern HIPASS catalog (NHICAT) Discoveries include over 5000 galaxies, the Leading Arm of the Magellanic Stream and a few gas clouds devoid of stars.
