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.


Originally published by [[qlwiki:Talent Computer Systems]] in just the SuperBASIC version, it has since been compiled with [[qlwiki:QLiberator]] and is now sold under licence by [[qlwiki:RWAP Software]].
