Information about “ASTRONOMY STAR CATALOGUE 2 OF 2 (851)”
A valuable collection of useful programs for anyone with an interest in
astronomy.
STAR CATALOGUE lists the named and designated stars of the 88
constellations -- generally of the sixth magnitude or brighter. Others
of interest are included along with dimmer stars within 10 light years
of Earth. About 1,700 stars are included in the data files. The
statistics on each star include name, magnitude, spectrum type,
distance, and other information. It also includes cross-referenced
stars, whether the star is a binary, variable, or erratic variable, and
the period of variation.
CONSTELLATION 88 presents a diagram of each of the 88 constellations,
with their general coordinates, right ascension, and declination.
SOLAR SYSTEM gives essential facts and figures on the planets, moons,
asteroids, and satellites within our solar system. Information includes
distance, diameter, rotation, revolution, orbit, eccentricity, and much
more.
ASTRONOMY NOTES discusses general information concerning stellar
astronomy such as spectral classes, Hubble's Constant, Kepler's
Harmonic Law, and Hertsprung-Russell diagrams.
CONSTELLATION NAMES lists (surprise!) the names of the constellations,
and ASTRONOMY CONVERSIONS contains information about different systems
of distance, temperature, and time.
