DSO DSO is a freeware astronomical program for Palm OS devices that should help to plan observations of deep sky objects.
The program allows to search for objects in the NGC/IC database by the object:
Minimum dimension

Planet 2000 Planet 2000 - The program Planet 2000 allows to calculate the position of the solar system bodies, from Mercury up to Saturn. It also calculates the Sun and the Moon position. The program gives the celestial coordinates (Right ascension and Declination) and the coordinates of the celestial body respect on the observer (topocentric coordinates Azimuth and Altitude)
Moon Phase Moon Phase will graphically display the phase of the Moon for any day.
This version is corrected to work with any version of the PalmPilot, to my knowledge.
What's New in This Release:
· Fixed failing to use default colors when not in inverted mode
Satellites of the Solar System Satellites of the Solar System - This is Smartlist To Go (formerly ThinkDB) database contain a listing of the satellites of the 9 major planets and those found around asteroids and minor planets.
This database is complete free and will remain so for all future updates
Navigate Navigate is a Palm OS program for computing the range and bearing between any two points on the Earth's surface OR the end location given a starting location, range and bearing.
It will compute these solutions for either lines of constant bearing (loxodromes or rhumb lines) or the shortest possible path on the Earth (geodesics or great circle routes)
Solar and Lunar Eclipses Solar and Lunar Eclipses - Solar Eclipses
Total-annular solar eclipses processed by the program are comprised between 1900 and 2100 (exactly 287 eclipses from May 28th, 1900 to September 4th, 2100).
The program gives the times of the phases (initial, central and final) and the geographical coordinates where it is possible to observe those circumstances of the eclipse
