Doc Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I agree I use Cartes Du Ceil. I think it's awesome piece of software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centroid Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 There's also Stellarium, but for me its still The Sky6, not free, but then not expensive either. Mind you, if you just want a Planetarium, without scope control, then the 'freebies' are good enough.Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychobilly Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 If your buying I'd also go with The Sky6 I like it a lot... The pro edition is the biz....Peter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychobilly Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Dont get me wrong when i want a quick look what the skies going to be like I use Steallarium its great especially with the atmosphere and LP simulations on... when I want to work out the exact centre RA and DEC co'ords and camera rotation for an image I use The Sky6 Pro...
