Just Released: Free Windows Astronomy Program, Controls Many Goto Telescopes
I have just released my new free Windows astronomy program RTGUI. This is a real-time 32-bit program for observers that gives continuously-updated, highly accurate information about celestial objects. Its principal features a - Rapidly locate deep-sky objects or bright stars from catalogs. - Easy-to-use GUI interface, complete documentation & "help" menu. - Create a custom "tour" based on your own criteria. - Locate the Sun, Moon, and Planets with excellent accuracy. - Controls many Celestron and Meade "Goto" telescopes to slew directly to the selected object. - Automatically record object, time, & location information when the Observing Log is opened - Display altitude and azimuth of Astronomical Objects In Real-Time. - Set up "night vision" mode in Windows to preserve your eyes' dark adaptation. The program is at www.debunker.com/astro/rtguipage.html . The program is free for noncommercial users, although donations are accepted. If users of the program have any comments on it, I would appreciate hearing them. -- Robert Sheaffer - User name "Roberto" at the debunker's domain Skeptical to the Max!
