Star Pilot Plus Star Pilot Plus is a bundle of MEW3's and our products designed for backyard astronomers. It includes the following:
Star Pilot - The most full featured program on the market for the Palm Computing Platform. Star Pilot has a database of almost 1500 stars and 88 constellations as well as the ability to plot the position of planets, the sun, and the moon in the sky
Lunar Lunar - Astronomy for the Palm OS. Lunar helps you observe the Moon by showing you the phases, the position in its orbit around Earth, the distance from Earth, its age in the current lunation and the percentage of illumination. It also gives you the names of the prominent features on the face of the Moon and the major quarters in the current lunation
astrolib astrolib - The astrolib library calculates planetary positions and timezones.
Positions of sun, moon and planets up to Pluto are calculated with an accuracy of the order of one arc minute for dates less than a century away from now. Calculations are based on approximation formulae by Paul Schlyter, which are in turn based on a preprint of a paper by T. van Flandern and K
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)
