Software Description:
JupSat Pro is a utility which provides a range of information on the Jupiter and graphically displays the planet (including its Great Red Spot) and the positions of its four main satellites, Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto (in real time).
JupSat Pro uses the user's geographic location, Timezone and Daylight Savings Time for its calculations, so these must be set up correctly. All times displayed are in local time.
Key Features:
- NASA TV screen displays a live video feed direct from NASA (needs a high-speed internet connection)
- Jupiter In The News screen displays the latest web-linked news items about Jupiter
- Calculates times of satellite eclipses by Jupiter's shadow
- General Astronomy News screen displays the latest web-linked news items from the world of astronomy
- Links to online resources about Jupiter, its satellites and missions and various radio astronomy resources relating to Jupiter
- The Satellite Tracks diagram now matches what would be seen through the selected optics (previously, the diagram showed the tracks as seen through a Newtonian reflector)
- The Satellite Tracks diagrams can now be printed out
- The Great Red Spot Transit times can now be printed out
- Calculates and displays the positions of Jupiter's four main (Galilean) moons - Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto for any date and time
- Displays side-on and plan views of Jovian system
- The display can be changed to support the view as seen through different optical configurations
- The position of the Great Red Spot is shown for the selected time and date
- Shadows of the satellites are displayed crossing Jupiter's disk
- The displays can be animated to show the movement of the satellites, their shadows and the Great Red Spot
- The displays can be zoomed so as to see satellite phenomena in greater detail
- Times of Great Red Spot transits are calculated for the selected month
- A diagram of the satellite tracks for the selected month can be viewed
- Times of satellite phenomena (Transits, occultations, etc.) are calculated for the selected date
- Compass directions show the orientation of Jupiter and its satellites depending on what hemisphere you live in and what optical configuration you have selected
- View rotating maps of each of the four satellites
- Displays the Rise, Transit and Set times of Jupiter for your location so you can make the most of your observing opportunities
- Displays the position of Jupiter (in RA/Dec and Alt/Az) along with its magnitude and distance amongst other data
- Numeric distances (in Jupiter radii) for each of the satellites are displayed
- Data for satellites that are transiting or being occulted by Jupiter are displayed in different colours for easy identification
Editor's Review:
JupSat Pro is wonderful geographic software. With this geographic software you can watch a live video from NASA if you have high-speed internet connection. The feature is exciting enough for a period of time. The latest news about the Jupiter or general astronomy can be displayed, so you can get the first-hand information.
Generally speaking, JupSat Pro is a very useful tool for the people who interest in astronomy and Jupiter.
