PLANETARIUM
Andreas Hofer Planetarium provides an almanac to year 2030 of all
navigational planets and stars. A compass view window displays azimuths and
altitudes of major objects at user chosen times and positions. Another tap on
the object brings up a sky view showing it in the surrounding star field. This
is a wonderful way to learn the night sky. It also includes a convenient magnetic
variation calculator valid for any location on Earth to 2010. This is a great
improvement over the relatively imprecise values one gets from charts.
This
program will run on any Palm OS handheld with version 3.5 or higher. This includes
the entire Palm III/V/VII/M100 families, Visors, Symbol, TRG, and IBM unitS.
It also runs on the new ARM processors (as well as the old Dragonball) and the
new Garmin iQue 3600. SW 1.0 lb.
