| I once came upon a very nice starfinder type program for Amy called
'Starch.arc' or some such. A few others appeared over time.
The one I tried was quite nice, actually. It worked in hi-res,
and quickly identified any celestial objects based on the time and
latitude and longitude entered.
There's also a commercial program called Galileo by Infinity Software,
but I haven't seen it or read any reviews of it.

Yup, I've seen that one. It's definetly real good. In fact, I print a copy
of the nights maps (maps at 2 or 3 different times through the night) before
lugging my telescope out!
In fact there is also AmiGAZER which is just as good.
But none are 3D! (just curious to see how it looks I guess. This might make
neat scenery for a space ship animation!)

There's even another comercial one - Planetarium - supposed to be even
better than Galileo, but it's not out (for Amiga) yet.
