Mirrored Starfield Fixed

Ever looked up at the night sky in Starfield in search of something familiar, only to realize that everything is there, but it's mirrored?
This creation fixes the mirrored appearance of the starfield, which is otherwise accurate, making the night sky and space appear as they do in real life.
In the vanilla game, the stars you see from the ground and from inside your ship are, for the most part, an accurate representation of our real universe - save for the fact that everything is reversed. You'd be able to find familiar constellations if you looked, but they'd be horizontally mirrored. This threw me for a loop when I tried stargazing in the game, only to realize that the entire sky was backwards.
With this creation, every star in the night sky is in its proper position. This affects not only how the sky appears from the ground, but also how space around you appears while inside your ship.
Having fixed the night sky, I also wanted to check to see if the star system grav jump ship scanner marker thingy would align with its actual star in the visible starfield. It turns out that it does not, but to be fair it doesn't do that in the vanilla game either. This was done by inverting the y coordinate of each star contained in Data\Space\stardata.csv. I don't think my simple edit should effect anything else in the game, or at least not anything significant, but I do not know what other game systems may also reference stardata.csv, so we can't be sure. Any other mod that edits stardata.csv is not compatible with this mod without granular, manual edits to the spreadsheet.
If you'd like to leave feedback or report a bug, the best way to reach me is through the Nexus Mods page for this creation: https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/10616
