Astro Info

Astro Info is an open-source astronomical ephemeris/almanac for PalmOS. It displays some basic information useful to star gazers, such as Sun Rise and Set, Moon Rise & Set and % Full, and the rising and setting of each of the 8 planets. (Yes, eight.  You didn't expect me to include the Earth, did you?)

Requirements

Astro Info requires at least PalmOS 2.x, and it requires that "Mathlib.prc" be installed before it will run.

Where can I get it?

  • You can download the current release here.
  • You can download the source to the current release here.

Next Steps

You use Astro Info by installing it, configuring it, then selecting various functions from the menu. Nothing fancy, or hard to understand. There's even help for each menu option.
