Sun/Moon Compass is a complete scientific tool that allows you to easily find the North direction based on the current position of the Sun or the Moon: 1. Instantly set your location by picking a city from 3000+ cities available. 2. Orient your device (holding it horizontally) towards the sun or the moon. 3. You are ready to go! You will immediately be able to find the North direction

Star Pilot - Sun & Moon is a bundle of two general purpose astronomy applications, Sol! II & Moon Info! While both are extremely valuable tools for astronomers, they are also well suited for everyday use.

Sol! II - computes Sun Rise, Sun Set, Day Length, start and end of Civil, Nautical, and Astronomical Twilight, and the length of day with twilight times added for any location on the planet. Sol! II has a Sun Information and Sun Compass display and can automatically adjust for Daylight Savings Time (DST) in 50 different time zones. In addition, Sol! II also now includes a sun tracker that plots the position of the sun through its daily arc!

Moon Info! - A utility for computing Moon Phase, Percent Illumination, Rise, Set and other interesting information about our closest neighor in the Solar System!

Sun Compass is a program to show the north direction from the sun or moon position. It also give you the direction to Makkah. You may see the sun or the north direction on top.

There are two ways of use:

1. the north is at the top of your phone: hold it with direction of the arrow to the sun.
2. the sun is on top of the phone: the arrow gives you the north direction.
The shown time is UTC (Universal Time Coordinated, only correct if the phone knows the time zone)
Use only for orientation not for navigation.

Limitations:

· Trial version doesnt save the location

Whats new in this release:

· fixed position problem

The program allows to use the Palm like a real Compass.
Put yourself in front to any celestial object of solar system (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn) or 28 bright stars (Sirius, Vega and so on): the program calculates its position on heavenly vault and then it will display a Compass. You will be able to find any correct geographical direction: North, East, South, West.

Moreover the program gives:

a) topocentric coordinates (Azimuth and Altitude);

b)equatorial coordinates (Right Ascension and Declination);

c) times of rise, transit and set of the celestial object (for the Moon, when the event occur the next day, it will be displayed ****).

Near the object name you can see the Azimuth and Altitude values (or Right Ascension and Declination).
On the right the program shows the altitude of the object respect on the horizon and Local Sidereal Time.

It is possible to store geographical coordinates.
Also it is possible to obtain the dates of the Equinoxes and Solstices for any year from 1000 up to 3000 (see the role of the Precession of the equinoxes!)

Earths Surface function

It is possible to calculate the distance between two points on the Earths surface. Moreover the program allows to know other geographical information about the parallel of any latitude: distance from Earths center, the radius of the parallel, the length of one degree of longitude and latitude, the linear velocity, the radius of curvature of the Earths meridian at any latitude.

Astronomical Almanac option gives the dates of the most important astronomical phenomena: more than 80 astronomical events for every year from 2000 up to 2030

Your shadow
This function calculates the direction and the length of your shadow at any time (if the Sun is above the horizon); moreover it displays the time when the shadow points North and the times when it is equal to your height.

Geo sites
This gives the geographical coordinates of 388 towns in the world. Once it is running, the user can choose, add (maximum 400) or modify the sites: the program will automatically send the corresponding coordinates to the Astro Compass program.

Astronomical Almanac option gives the dates of the most important astronomical phenomena: more than 80 astronomical events for every year from 2000 up to 2030.

GPS The program allows to receive and to display data from GPS unit connected to Palm serial port. Please, read GPS.rtf file for detail.

Registration: Full version needs HotSyncName.

Yes, it works in Palm OS 5 environment


GPS function does not have been tested with ALL GPS but it works with the main equipments

Important Note: This product is also available in L3s MegaPack with 95% savings!

A port of the classic Lunar Lander arcade game, Moon Shots graphics and controls have been optimized for the Palm.
You can fly the LEM through a variety of different screens and terrains, with landing sites that are easy or almost impossible. To make things even more interesting you can choose three different levels of fuel, and three gravity strengths. You earn points based on successful landings, with more points earned for difficult landing sites. Increased gravity scores extra points. Soft crashes or explosive "make a new crater" hard crashes will cause you to lose points.

Caution: High gravity is hard. Very hard. Really.

Moon Shot supports both color and gray-scale devices.

REQUIRES APPFORGE BOOSTER 2.0!

The program also uses a small archive of stars: "Achern","Acrux","Agena","Aldebaran","Alnair","Altair","Ankaa","Antares","Arneb","Arturo","Betelgeuse", "Canopus","Capella","Castore","Deneb","Fomalaut","Fornacis","Kiffa","Mizar","Peacock","Phact","Polare", "Procione","Regolo","Rigel","Sirius","Spica","Vega". These stars can be used to find geographic direction.

Moreover the program gives topocentric coordinates (Azimuth and Altitude) and times of rise, transit and set of the celestial object (for the Moon, when the event occur the next day, it will be displayed **** ).
At the bottom, on the left, you can see the azimuth and altitude values. The button AA allows to display Right Ascension and Declination rather than Azimuth and Altitude and vice versa (text on button will change in RD: when it displays AA you see Azimuth and Altitude values, when you read RD, the program shows Right Ascension and Declination values).
On the right side you can see (graphically, by a small cross) the altitude of the object respect on the horizon (the minimum on the vertical axis is -90°, the maximum is +90°, the step is 30°).

The LST (Local Sidereal Time - that is the Right Ascension that transits on celestial meridian of the observer) will be display in LST frame.
Requested data

Once the procedure has been started, the user can modify the date, longitude, latitude and local time. It is also possible to take in account daylight-savings time. The values related to the current date and time will be displayed.

Date
By date-control you can insert any permit date .

Local time
The time is the local civil time of the time zone of the site. If you want to consider daylight-saving time you have to check DST box.
If your Time Zone is not equal to Longitude Time Zone of your geographical site you can use TZ field.
See the documentation to find correct time zone limits.

Latitude
There are no limits about the latitude of the site (of course when the user latitude is 90N or 90S the result can be strange).
You can insert values between 90 South and 90 North. In demo version the program will only use integer part (degrees) of the value.

Longitude
It is possible to insert value between 180 West and 180 East.
The program allows to store geographical coordinates by the option Store geo coordinates . In this case the program will also store
DST and TZ data.

Equinoxes and Solstices
This command displays time of the March and September Equinoxes and June and December Solstices, for any year. In Demo version the program will only calculate values for current year.

Earths Surface
It is possible to calculate the distance between two points on the Earths surface. Moreover the program allows to know other geographical information about the parallel of any latitude: distance from Earths center, the radius of the parallel, the length of one degree of longitude and latitude, the linear velocity, the radius of curvature of the Earths meridian at any latitude.

Your shadow
Do you want to know the length of your shadow and other information?. This function calculates the direction and the length of your shadow at any time (if the Sun is above the horizon) moreover it displays the time when the shadow lies on your meridian (towards north or south depend on your latitude and Sun position) and the times when it is equal to your height. In Demo version the program will calculate the shadow for integer value of the time (without minutes).

Geo Sites
It is possible to use geographical coordinates of 388 towns in the world. The user can choose the site: the program will automatically use the corresponding coordinates (not in Demo version).

Moons Phases
The program calculates the phases of the Moon near the inserted date. It gives the time of the Full Moon, New Moon, First quarter and Last quarter. In Demo version the program will only calculate values for current month.
Easter
By this command the program calculates the Easter date for any year

Limitations:

· In Demo version the user will be able to select only the first six stars.
