Cosmos

Cosmos is a simple to use Astronomy program - after you enter the longitude and latitude co-ordinates of your location, a time and date, the program will display a picture of the stars, planets and comets in the sky.

Once the map has been plotted, you can take an even closer look at the moon and planets - providing you with detailed information on stars and planets, together with a diagram of what it would like to the naked eye (or through a telescope). The rings of Saturn, the moons of Jupiter and the phases of the moon are all correctly shown for the time and date you have specified.
