You may fill out forms for all the objects you intend to view in a session, then use the forms to keep track of your sucess, or you may observe as you always have, and record your observations during or after your session. After you're done, you can view and print your observing records sorted by date or by object.
There's even a space where you can sketch your observations on the page, or place scans of your sketches after you're done. An "astrophoto" section for each observation lets astrophotographers keep track of their exposures as well.
When you want to use TSOL in the field, simply choose "Nightvision Mode" to switch to a vision-saving red display!
This is the Windows version. Mac and Palm OS versions are also available.

NGic | | Description: | Basically this is a planning tool for GoTo telescope owners. You can perform a search for the objects visible for a given period of time either by constellation, catalogue number, coordinates and or sky area.
You can also edit the profile of your local horizon, apply filters to the objects and create your own lists of topics of interest.
Menu and functions integration have been well achieved. The only drawback seems to be the likeability of the requirement to install a few visual basic related files for it to run properly (see the homepage for details). | | | Version: | 3 | | Filesize: | 881.34 Kb | | Added on: | 26-Oct-2003 | | Downloads: | 333 | | Category: | Windows / Logging & Planning | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
dObjects | | Description: | You overhear a friend mention that he recently observed a really cool deep-sky object named Minkowski's Footprint. He can't remember its catalog name or position in the sky, except that it lies in Cygnus. You'd like to observe this object, but how do you get the information you need to find it and know what to expect when you go to observe it? dObjects has the answer.

Meade Autostar with RS-232 serial port
Meade LX200 (including LX200 GPS)
Losmandy Gemini Level 1 or Level 3
Telescope compatible with Autostar, LX200 or Gemini command set
At this time, ScopeDriver does not support Celestron instruments.
A Find Object Window finds tens of thousands of sky objects by Common Name, Bayer/Flamsteed designation, Constellation, and more; Observing List support enables you to define an unlimited number of observing lists, and access recently-viewed lists with a single click; integrated, searchable Observing Log features customizable text file import and export options. Also included is a handy interface for adding orbiting bodies (such as comets and asteroids) as well as fixed sky objects and a night vision mode.

C88 | | Description: | Provides detailed information about the celestial objects visible with naked eye, and may be used to aid in viewing of deep sky objects through the eyepiece of a modest amateur telescope. Complex information about the planets, sun and moon completes the functionallity of the program. It is based on the extensive data of the Bright Star Catalogue (9110 entries) and of the Saguaro Astronomy Club Deep Sky Database (10700 entries). These catalogues provide basic data (i.e. positions, magnitudes, sizes, spectral data, catalogue references) as well as specific data, like double/multiple star informations, variability data or - in the case of deep sky objects - object classifications and descriptions. The data can be printed out in several types of lists and orders. | | | Version: | 1.2 | | Filesize: | 11.04 MB | | Added on: | 18-Aug-2003 | | Downloads: | 442 | | Rating: | 10.0 (1 Vote) | | Category: | Windows / Logging & Planning | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | Comments (1) | |
