If you're looking for a complete desktop planetarium solution, look no further than Starry Night Pro Plus 5.0. With this powerful software you can see how the sky over your house looks right now, or use it to see how the sky will look tonight, tomorrow or far into the past or future. You can even change your position and see how the heavens appear from the other side of the earth, or from other planets.

From any place on Earth, see the real night sky in full-color photographic detail.

Enhanced telescope control on supported scopes makes Starry Night even easier-to-use for unsurpassed astronomical observations.

SkyCalendar alerts you to and simulates rare celestial events like this double shadow transit on Jupiter.

Delve deeper into the mysteries of the universe with the integrated SkyGuide.

Stunning views from a variety of celestial bodies are just a few clicks away; witness a total eclipse from the Moon, watch the Sun set from the surface of Mars, or even ride a comet. Starry Night Pro is also a valuable educational tool with more than 100 interactive, multimedia tours that reveal the fascinating science and history of stars. An elegant, easy-to-use interface lets you quickly tap into a new and improved suite of features. Key new features of Starry Night Pro Plus include integration with jaw-dropping "AllSky" star photograph imagery, connectivity with MaxIM DL telescopic imaging software (Windows Only), and enhanced computerized telescope controls. You'll also enjoy all the new features of Starry Night Pro Plus' companion product, Starry Night Pro, features like an enhanced SkyCalendar, a built-in Ephemeris Generator, and advanced observation aids. You haven't seen the heavens until you've seen the exclusive photographic imagery that ships with Starry Night Pro Plus. Take your observations to the next level with AllSky, the first-ever, full-color photograph of the entire night sky viewable from Earth. Quickly and easily navigate and zoom-in on the full-color CCD image mosaic, which is comprised of about 20,000 individual images taken with a 6 mega-pixel CCD camera and a custom-built optical system. The full-color, photographic detail of these images will knock your socks off! The Windows version of Starry Night Pro Plus also includes a plug-in for compatibility with MaxIM DL (sold separately), a complete CCD image-capture solution for telescopes. Now you can capture images with MaxIM DL and import them into Starry Night for viewing and navigation. With Starry Night Pro Plus, you can take control of your computerized telescope like never before. This version features compatibility with these telescopes:

Orion SkyQuest Intelliscope series (XT6, XT8, X10 and X12)
Meade LX200
Meade LX200 GPS
LX200 Compatible Scope
Meade ETX Autostar
Autostar V2.2 or later (ETX, LX90, LXD55)
Celestron NexStar 60, 80, 114 GT
Celestron NexStar 5 or 8
Celestron NexStar 8 GPS
Celestron NexStar 11 GPS

Enhanced telescope control options are now available, including "Home Scope" which moves your scope to its home position for easier computer-to-star alignment. "Sync Gaze" synchronizes the scope's internal gaze direction with Starry Night and "Park/Unpark" lets you set the position of your scope when you're not using it. This is ideal for scopes placed in a permanent location or in one position over several days. Simply unpark your scope and start observing immediately without having to perform a star alignment again or recalibrating. Meanwhile, "Slew Limits" prevents the telescope from moving outside a user-defined horizon in both altazimuth and equatorial configurations. This helps to protect your valuable equipment by preventing the telescope from hitting the mount or tripod. You can also display your slew horizon in the Starry Night sky. The "Quick Center" function immediately centers Starry Night on the telescope position indicator. And for Macintosh users, the "Telescope Handbox Simulator" allows you to push the direction arrows in the Starry Night interface to move your scope. The telescope controls also allow you to align your computer star maps with your telescope's viewfinder. You can even customize Starry Night's field-of-view indicators to match your telescope's eyepiece. A host of great activities await you when you have such powerful software at your fingertips. For instance, you could plan a night under the stars with the observational planner, track the sky with your telescope, and store comments and images on individual targets in Starry Night's observation log. And when the sun comes up, you can still enjoy the heavens by printing full sky (180-degree) star charts of any area in the sky. With access to 55 million stars and 1 million galaxies, an enhanced SkyCalendar, a built-in Ephemeris Generator, and advanced observation aids, Starry Night Pro Plus is packed with new features that make it a must-have upgrade. The SkyCalendar is now seamlessly integrated with the observation planner and logs so you can more easily plan and record your stargazing sessions and receive alerts about upcoming celestial events. High-precision satellite tracking makes it easy to identify orbiting objects while the built-in Ephemeris Generator lets you calculate the position of heavenly bodies at a time of your choosing. Meanwhile, high-resolution illustrations let you enjoy panaramic views of your favorite constellations. You can also choose horizon panoramas to simulate surface conditions on earth or other planets and moons. Lastly, a new joystick-supported spaceship mode lets you maneuver around the Universe freely and expansively. Use this tool to see the sky from any location in the universe up to 700 million light years away. If you're looking for valuable educational tools Starry Night Pro Plus delivers. Call up more than 100 multimedia tours to deepen your exploration and understanding of the universe. Enjoy high resolution exclusive constellation illustrations and images from the Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes, as well as the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. You'll also get a library of imagery that lets you zoom in and explore the surface of Mars and Earth in unprecedented detail with new higher resolution surface maps. There's even a dictionary of common astronomy terms, plus a Record Holders database of astronomy trivia. And with an Internet connection you can direct Starry Night to send you automatic updates about new discoveries and orbital data of satellites, comets and asteroids.
