ACE1 - ACE ASTRONOMY 1 of 2
Extensive program covering astronomical
factors. Calculates the position,
altitude, azimuth, and more for the sun,
moon, and planets. Covers Eclipses, mean
sidereal time and Julian Day, precession
of coordinates, phases of the moon,
ACE2 - ACE ASTRONOMY 2 of 2
equinoxes and solstices, galilean
satellites of jupiter, perpetual calendar,
polaris and more. Provides all information
needed for lunar and planetary
photography, can shell to Dos. Excellent
program.
ASTRONOM - ASTRONOMICAL EPHEMERIS V2.5
Can draw a map of about 900 of the
brightest stars for any time or location,
can locate all planets, the sun and the
moon on the map or provide coordinates.
Will outline all the 88 constellations,
and plot the path of the sun/moon/planets.
Much more. CGA.
JMOONS - JUPITER'S MOONS V1.00
Fascinating program that displays the
moons and orbital paths of Jupiter.
Animated display shows both a top view and
a side view, 3 day & 15 day display of how
the 4 moons cris-cross. Allows you to
select dates and time. (Rqs. EGA)
DEEPSPAC - DEEP SPACE 3.03 1 of 2
Deep Space 3-D is a full featured tool for
producing professional-quality star charts
in a wide range of formats. It plots the
positions of the sun, moon, planets, and
comets, up to 250,000 stars and approx.
10,000 galaxies, cont....
DEEPSPA2 - DEEP SPACE 3.03 2 of 2
nebulae, star clusters, etc. Supports
Epson and compatible 9 pin, 24 pin and HP
Laserjet II printers. Rqs, 512k, HD.
SHUTTLE - SPACE SHUTTLE ORBIT SIMULATION
Track shuttle & other satellites.
Contains orbital data on over 100
satellites including Hubble Space
Telescope. Displays world map like NASA
Houston Mission Control Wall Map,
including orbits.
ASTROCLK - ASTROCLOCK INCL. NAVIGATION 1 of 2
Astronomical clock and celestial tracking
program. Locate and display stars and
objects. Identify stars, nebula, planets,
objects, etc. Also performs navigation
functions.
ASTROCL2 - ASTROCLOCK INCL. NAVIGATION 2 of 2
SKYGLOBE - SKYGLOBE 3.6
Award-winning desktop planetarium. Fast,
fun and easy to use astronomy program.
Over 29,000 stars, constellations, star
labels, planets, Messier Objects, zoom
in/out, plus many other features. NOTE:
this fits only on 720k disk or larger.
Rqs, 512k. ASP
SKYBASE - SKYBASE 2000.0 SKYCHART 4.61
Make sky charts that are oriented the way
you need them, normal, inverted or mirror
image. Charts can cover the whole sky or
just enough to star hop with your finder
scope. Supports a mouse. (Requires 512k,
CGA, EGA).
PLANETS - PLANETS 4.1
Computes information relating to the
position, distance, magnitude, orbit view,
skyview, etc. for the major planets, four
minor planets or Halley's comet on a
specified date and time.
GRAVITY - GRAVITY SIMULATOR
Designed to let a person experiment with
the orbits of planets as they may occur in
the universe. The motion of the planets
can be very interesting to watch via its
gravitational force.
COSMOHOD - OUR COSMO-HOOD 1.10
View the nearest 2,368 galaxies to the
Earth and move through the illustration in
3D. Runs in 2 modes, specify your cosmic
position and direction of view or take a
trip through our Cosmo-hood. Rqs, 500k,
HD, mouse optional.
CIRCUM - CIRCUMSPACE 1.0
A space travel simulator from the author
of SkyGlobe. Displays the sky as seen from
anywhere within several hundred light
years of Earth. Click to travel instantly
to any of 7780 stars, or choose the warp
mode to animate the journey. Rqs, 512k,
EGA. ASP
ORBIT - ORBIT
Here is a program that will teach you the
fundamental concepts of orbits and
satellites. It's done detailed diagrams
and wonderful graphics. You can also
simulate orbits with your own parameters
then watch your satellite orbit the earth.
Rqs, EGA/VGA.
HALLEYDS - HALLEY'S UNNATURAL DISASTERS
The recent passing of Halley's seems to
point to triggering forces in tectonic
plate motion. The book is intended, to
suggest far more than the influence of the
comet. It is about astronomical events
that imply unseen forces acting on natural
phenomenon.
SOLSYS - SOLAR SYSTEM 1.0
Sun, Moon & planet finder based on Jean
Meeus' Astronomical Formula for
Calculators. Accuracy capable of placing
planets in a 500x telescope eyepiece.
Tells right ascension, declination,
distance, diameter, alt-azimuth, more.
Rqs, VGA.
