C88 Description

C88 provides detailed information about the celestial objects visible with naked eye, and may be used to aid in viewing of deep sky objects through the eyepiece of a modest amateur telescope. Complex information about the planets, sun and moon completes the functionallity of the program. It is based on the extensive data of the Bright Star Catalogue (9110 entries) and of the Saguaro Astronomy Club Deep Sky Database (10700 entries). These catalogues provide basic data (i.e. positions, magnitudes, sizes, spectral data, catalogue references) as well as specific data, like double/multiple star informations, variability data or - in the case of deep sky objects - object classifications and descriptions. The data can be printed out in several types of lists and orders. The "Solar System Section" of C88 gives informations about the pysical, observational and optical parameters of the planets as well as it's orbital, rotational and illuminational data, data about it's satellites and much more. Of course special data of our sun and moon are available too (i.e. an online-updatable sun spot number archive, solar/lunar eclipse informations printable high accurate ephemeris and others.) One of the most noteworthy functions of C88 is the constellation chart module. The charts are printable and fully user configurable. Stars or deep sky objects can be searched or marked in the charts.
