Like many long-time amateur astronomers, my first star charts were printed. (I usually do read hardware and software manuals before using a product.)īefore I get further into this Starry Night Pro Plus review, I thought it would be helpful to provide some background on my use of star charts. I'll read that before I get into the application. Fortunately, there is a Users Guide (PDF) accessible from within the application.
So, there is a lot to learn about using Starry Night Pro. Also, the default screen showed my location as "Near Mount Lemmon IR Observatory, USA". Once configured it was not obvious how you change the name of your current "Home Location" to something else, like "Cassiopeia Observatory". Time Zone can be obtained from your computer's setting. You can do that via a city name (if you live in or near one of its known cities), a map view, your Latitude/Longitude, or your Zip/Postal Code. Upon initial installation and launch you are prompted to enter your "Home Location".
It includes all the features and capabilities of the other versions. I will be dicussing the "Pro Plus" version, which is the highest, most capable version available. You can upgrade from one version to a higher version by purchasing the upgrade. There are several versions of Starry Night available at various prices. It was the same version as available via download (2.5 GB) from their web site.
