Stellaris 1.50

Stellaris is a very comprehensive astronomy suite that goes far beyond displaying the nightly sky.
Showing the positions of stars, planets, and Deep Sky objects for an arbitrary time and location is
just one feature among many for this software.

The program's wide range of features addresses all users, from beginner to experienced.

For beginners, the the program's Educator tool interactively demonstrates and explains astronomical
concepts and current phenomena. Intermediate users will find the Event Forecast useful, which
automatically forecasts relevant astronomical events such as conjunctions and eclipses. Experienced
users can go a step further and let Stellaris find occurrences of user-defined phenomena, such as
"sunrise before 7 AM".

Stellaris can generate reports of past and future astronomical phenomena. A report contains data for
one day/night, one month, or one year. While a night report contains data which is useful for
one observation night, such as the visible planets, a month report also contains the positions of
the Jovian and Saturnian satellites for the entire month.

The program can calculate a wealth of data for all celestial bodies. This data can be calculated for
an arbitrary time span and displayed as a graph, and it can also be exported to an XML file.

A very useful feature is the Related Tasks window that suggests which actions you may want to take
next. If you are examining the Moon in the sky window, the Related Tasks window offers to display an
image of the Moon, search for a lunar eclipse, or generate a report of the Moon's ephemerides for
the current year. Each of these actions can be performed with a single click. After choosing an
action, the Related Tasks window again suggests reasonable next steps. This way, you are led
through the program with very little learning effort.

Stellaris also includes a very extensive and well-structured help file which explains all the
program's features in detail.
