Ignace-Gaston Pardies (5 September 1636 – 21 April 1673 was a French scientist.<br/><br/>

In 1674, Pardies published the star atlas <i>Globi coelestis in tabulas planas redacti descriptio</i> in Paris. The atlas was partially based on the work of another French Jesuit scientist Thomas Gouye. The atlas was engraved by G. Vallet and dedicated to Johan Friedrich, Duke of Braunschweig-Luneburg. The constellation figures are drawn from Uranometria, but they were carefully reworked and adapted to a broader view of the sky.<br/><br/>

In 1693, a newer edition was published and in 1700 another edition appeared. They include new information, such as the paths of comets observed since 1674. The atlas uses gnomonic projection so that the plates make up a cube of the universe. The atlas served as a model for the star charts of William Rutter Dawes published in 1844.
