GMS@psuvm.BITNET (08/05/85)
I have two astronomy programs that run on the IBM-PC or close compatibles
with graphics displays. They are both distributed under the FREEWARE
concept, so I am allowed (and willing) to share them with any interested
persons.
However I do not have a reliable method (yet) of converting the files
and posting them to net.sources. So in the meantime you can send me a floppy
(with postage) and I'll copy them for you.
A list follows:
---------------
MOONBEAM is a program that will determine the position, phase and
illumination of the Moon. It will optionally plot the moon on a
skymap drawn from the Yale Catelog of Bright Stars.
SKYPLOT will produce a horizon plot of the sky as seen from any point
on Earth during the period 1-Jan-1975 to 31-Dec-2000. Plotted (if
visible at that time) are the Sun, Moon, all Planets, as many stars as
are in its database and other user-supplied objects.
Since both programs have a number of files, one floppy will be required for
each.
