![]() ![]() For example, suppose that a small camera is attached to a finder scope or guide scope riding on my 5 inch refractor and the star pattern seen in this camera could be recognized by Cartes du Ciel so that I could get precise information about any particular star I was looking at within the field of my telescope.Ĭelestron has a crude program called "Identify", where the CGEM II mount will tell you which object within its 40,000-object data base is being viewed (based upon its assumption the telescope and the mount is properly aligned). I also had the thought that I should ask you if there is any device that can communicate to Cartes du Ciel so that the program can provide precise detailed information about what is being seen in the field of view of the telescope. This is important to me, because one of my scopes is a large newtonian, which is currently unmounted and it would be nice to know what stars it is looking at (while it is standing on end in my driveway). I am writing to ask if Cartes du Ciel also has this feature? Your program, I know goes much deeper regarding faint star magnitudes compared to the Sky portal app. I am currently using the Celestron Sky portal application, which has the nice feature of marking the exact zenith of my location on the map while slowly scrolling the stars visible at this location as time passes. Saved circle file (.cdcc) include the coordinate equinox on the first row and more information for use with the mosaic tool.You can change this option in Setup/General/Server. Client/server communication can now use J2000 coordinates instead of the current chart setting.Mysql support will be removed in the next version. ![]()
