NOV 26, 2007 - Deepsky Astronomy Software offers tremendous capability at a very modest price: from as little as $29.99 for the download to a still very reasonable $69.99 for the three DVD set with training videos and extras. (Skip the download, go for the CD or DVD versions.) It takes a Windows machine to run Deepsky, which is a pity for Mac and Linux users, etc. Check out the online demo to get a feel for what this software can do, whether as a desktop/laptop planetarium, a guide to the night sky, or as a driver for any ASCOM compatible telescope (to position the scope or retrieve its current position). You can pay a whole lot more for astronomy software, but I'm not at all sure you can get more for your money than Deepsky.
