Astronomy software?
-
Another odd request for the geeks among us. I am looking for a reasonably up to date astronomy application database and front-end, giving stars with, say, 100 light years from ours. A 3D simulator would be nice, but cost is an issue. Basically, I need something I can consult for astrogation: starting at one star system, how far away is another and what direction would I go? This for my science... um, fiction project. Yeah, that's it.

What do you need astronomical software for? The girls' dorm is only a block away.

Yes, it is actually a rather good program. Shows all the major (ie easy to see) satellites too. (I mean man-made ones, it shows all the natural ones, obviously, and when I say all I mean all that we know about. (This line comes courtesy of the Pedants' Society))

A man isn't complete until he's married. Then, he's finished. ;P

I'm not sure all the criterias you request are furfilled (as I'm not too deep into astronomy), but you can always check these: - Stellarium (http://www.stellarium.org/[^] - Cartes du Ciel (SkyChart) http://www.ap-i.net/skychart/en/download[^] - C2A http://www.astrosurf.com/c2a/english/download.htm[^]

I remember my wedding. Bar the best man, every male guest of mine was married and, to a man, repeatedly said "It's not too late..." right up until I walked out of the church. Then they sadly said "It's too late..."

No, I just don't want to make stupid narrative mistakes.
