Field of view calculator v2

[m37]

Add me to the list of people who really appreciate the work you have put into this and the original version. It is such a lifesaver for beginners like me.

Just an idea for another feature (yet another one!!!) would be a basic info box for the targets for example (just lifted from wikipedia):

M1 (NGC1952)

Other designations: NGC 1952

Common Name: Crab Nebula

Type: Supernova Remnant

Distance (kly): 6.3

Constellation: Taurus

Apparent Mag: 9.0

I for one would gladly volunteer to gather the information for you.

cheers again for the most useful thing on the internet

I would also like to express my gratitude for the work put into this excellent resource.

V2 seems like a genuine improvement.

Well done and thanks.

Thanks very much Dave it's a very useful program to use & we all appreciate the amount of work you must have spent puting it together.

Loving the update

I use the V1 all the time planning targets for both imaging and visual. With the simbad search in the new one, this is simply fantastic. Thanks for the work that must have gone into this. Please please could we have the rest of Delos and Pentax XW eyepieces in there as well?
