Catalog sky position; no proper-motion propagation
Selection caveat
Stars with a K2 planet candidate (disposition CANDIDATE, default row of the table) and a distance in the table. A candidate is not a confirmed planet. A star that is also a confirmed-planet host keeps its confirmed-host record. A star that is also a Gaia local star has the position of that record (facts.position_source_key).
