Hi all...
Gee.... It's been a while - again!
Hopefully I'm about to start firing up my obs again. I'll likely need some new software - really just for planning rather than scope control. Previously I've used Starry Night Pro. Can anyone recommend anything else with good bang for buck, not necessarily free.... Starry Night was always really good, but costs a lot of bucks for the bang!

Thanks....
Lee

Astroplanner, Stellarium, Sky Safari.

Thanks rrussell.....
After I posted this I had a thought, why not reinstall my old version of Starry Night? Previously I couldn't do that as macs had transitioned between processor architectures, but Starry Night 6 fired up very nicely... That will do for now....

I’m using Sky Safari - there is also Celestia, my copy dates from 2008 but it still runs in High Sierra.
