Left: distribution of the 678 sources included in the ICRF3 X/Ka band frame on a Mollweide projection of the celestial sphere. Each source is plotted as a dot color-coded according to its position uncertainty (defined as the semi-major axis of the error ellipse in position). Right: distribution of coordinate uncertainties for the same 678 sources. Right ascension is shown in blue while declination is shown in salmon. The superimposed portion of the two distributions is shown in purple. It must be noted that the scale for the y-axis (number of sources) is different from that in Fig. 6.
