- The Exoplanet Encyclopedia provides a nearly complete list of currently known extrasolar planets: http://exoplanet.eu/
- Meteorite catalogs catalogues can be found here:
http://www.nhm.ac.uk/research-curation/research/projects/metcat/search/indexsing.dsml and
and http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/index.php - The catalog of lunar samples is available here: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/lunar/samples/
- Other planetary samples are listed in topical web sites, e.g. samples from the Stardust mission are described here:
http://curator.jsc.nasa.gov/stardust/catalog/ - Asteroids: Usage is to use preferably name (if it exists) or principal designation (number is not used here, can be included in alt_target_name)
- Calibration targets: Values can relate to existing names in a given archive (e.g., the PSA contains values such as bias, checkout, dark, flatfield, internal source…)

- for ground-based observations, the list of IAU observatory codes:
http://www.minorplanetcenter.net/iau/lists/ObsCodesF.html
However, this list is not intended to include all ground-based observatories, and a complement still needs to be identified (including e. g. radio-telescopes). - a reasonably complete list of radio-telescopes is available here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_radio_telescopes - the WiseRep list also provides a database of telescopes and instruments:
https://wiserep.weizmann.ac.il/aux/telescopes,
https://wiserep.weizmann.ac.il/aux/instruments - Concerning space-borne data, the most complete list of international planetary missions and orbital observatories is found here (included in a complete list of space missions with ID): http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/
Planetary missions are also listed here: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/chronology.html. - Alternatively, the PDS dictionary defines values for many mission names:

Other mission names are supported by the SPICE system, but only as ID codes:
