DeepSky Astronomy Software

I got into the hobby seriously 2 years ago and bought my first real scope at that time, a Hardin 10" dob. For my first year I was using free shareware programs available on the web but they never seemed to fill my needs being a star hopper. I had thought about other programs with more features than the freeware but the prices were way out of line and instead of buying a program I would rather buy eyepieces.

Then I noticed on our clubs web site that there was a link to Deepsky and I checked it out. It seemed to have everything I wanted and needed as a dob owner and star hopper. The price seemed too good to be true and I decided to try it out.

All I can say is this program has it all; if you need it for your observing sessions chances are Deepsky has it. What makes it the best is that Steve listens to his customers and adapts the program in new versions or updates to even further better an already GREAT program. I have recommended it to numerous people in my club. This program was made for the Astronomer meeting any possible needs one could have and on top of it the price is within anyone's budget.
