Because the heavensat website is currently down I am hosting the latest heavensat files (thanks to Greg Roberts) until the heavensat website is back up. Unfortunately Greg only has the many small updates and not the absolute latest full version so there is a lot to download if you want everything: I tested all these zip files and they all seem to work just fine: http://gr5.org/heavensat213.zip - 7.2MB this is the only file you absolutely need - the rest is optional http://gr5.org/sky2000v2.zip - 5.83MB this brings dimmest stars from mag 6.5 to around mag 10.0 (but you have to check a checkbox in options/stars also) http://gr5.org/heavensat214d_patch.zip - 1.7MB http://gr5.org/heavensat215a_patch.zip - 0.6MB http://gr5.org/heavensat215b_patch.zip - 0.6MB http://gr5.org/manual.pdf - 0.8MB a manual but for an older version. The program is pretty obvious - not sure if manual is needed. Each patch is a bit of a pain - you have to unzip then drag the files into the folders of the same names. But it all works. There is another zip file to get even fainter stars but I don't know how to get this from Greg Roberts at this time. Maybe he'll post it to a website somewhere. Heavensat is a very slick windows program designed for satellite observers but a great planetarium program also. - George Roberts ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
