A valuable collection of useful programs for anyone with an interest in 
astronomy.                                                              
                                                                        
STAR CATALOGUE lists the named and designated stars of the 88           
constellations -- generally of the sixth magnitude or brighter.  Others 
of interest are included along with dimmer stars within 10 light years  
of Earth.  About 1,700 stars are included in the data files.  The       
statistics on each star includes name, magnitude, spectrum type,        
distance, and other information.  It also includes cross-referenced     
stars, whether the star is a binary, variable, or erratic variable, and 
the period of variation.                                                
                                                                        
CONSTELLATION 88 presents a diagram of each of the 88 constellations,   
with their general coordinates, right ascension, and declination.       
                                                                        
SOLAR SYSTEM gives essential facts and figures on the planets, moons,   
asteroids, and satellites within our solar system.  Information includes
distance, diameter, rotation, revolution, orbit, eccentricity, and much 
more.                                                                   
                                                                        
ASTRONOMY NOTES discusses general information concerning stellar        
astronomy such as spectral classes, Hubble's Constant, Kepler's Harmonic
Law, and Hertsprung-Russell diagrams.                                   
                                                                        
CONSTELLATION NAMES lists (surprise!) the names of the constellations,  
and ASTRONOMY CONVERSIONS contains information about different systems  
of distance, temperature, and time.
