STAR2000 is STAR 2000 v.1.11, the 1991 update of the freeware subset of
Star Base from Debonair Software by J. Andrzej Wrotniak. Star 2000 is a
star database, browser and plotter, addressed to those with interest in
astronomy. It contains data on 2000 brightest stars from the Yale
Bright Stars Catalog and on 100 brightest deep sky objects from the RNGC,
allows for accessing the database in various modes, and for plotting sky
maps in various reference frames, projections and magnifications.
Version 1.1 has been improved over previous version by adding mapping and
browsing of Deep sky objects (mapping and browsing) have been added. The
Solar System ephemeris routines have been completely rewritten (with
uniform use of J2000 co-ordinates). Two new map projections have been
included. Map range used instead of magnification. Changes in the user
interface (including different menus). Star 2000 uses GEM, is easy to use
and has and has on-line help. It will run on any ST/STe/TT, color or
mono.
