![]() Virtual Moon Atlas is a 13-year running opensource project featuring the visualization of the Moon aspect for every date and hour. XEphem has a solar system view that enable visualizing the position of planets in it, easily understanding what happens at what date, or finding conjunctions. It is compatible with XEphem.Īll sky cartography software above are able to depict the phase or appearance of planets of the solar system, or information about their visibility, their satellites, and so on. ![]() The XmTel package provides the INDI drivers (and an INDI server) for telescopes. XEphem also features planetary cartography, a quite fun solar system ephemeris with top, side or canted views to see planet alignments and much more. Probably the most used and reliable free sky cartography and telescope pointing software. Here is the list of compatible telescopes with either ways. The telescope server communicates with Stellarium using a stellarium-specific protocol described here (source). The only advantage I see about using a telescope server instead of the direct link is that it can be distributed on the network. Since December 2017, with version 17.0, it is finally possible to use INDI for telescope control! It connects to the telescope devices either directly, with the serial port, or using the telescope servers from the first method. The second mode is using the control plug-in, with its graphical user interface. It requires command-line interaction and manual configuration. The first mode is using a telescope server, a stand-alone application interacting with the telescope device. Two modes of interaction are possible, as explained on their wiki page for telescope control. It does not check for sun-pointing or mount collision. Stellarium has the ability to control telescopes for GoTo operations. It is also open source, available on github. New in November 2018: there is a Web version of Stellarium, available on. Stellarium is written in C++ and Qt and is working on most operating systems. It is the perfect sky map for beginners and for realistic rendering. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope. Stellarium is a free planetarium for your computer. Also, the telescope will report its position to the software and thus be displayed on the map, which is very useful in case of manual slewing. Clicking on the map and asking the software for telescope slewing is quite simple and useful. It works for absolute- and relative-pointing telescopes. The telescope control part, with the exception of Stellarium for which it's described in its own subsection below, uses the generic telescope link known as INDI. They can be used to display the sky that you will currently see above you, navigate in some areas of the sky in a quest for a good observation target, search for particular objects and even control telescopes. When the installation is finished you should be able to see and run the program.The software listed in this category present a sky map, some in a realistic way, some in a more symbolic way. ![]() Once the Sky Chart / Cartes du Ciel is downloaded click on it to start the setup process (assuming you are on a desktop computer). ![]() This will start the download from the website of the developer.
