Hi Shane

It looks like a very comprehensive piece of software.

I have dabbled a bit in the technique, although I use my CCD camera control software (CCDSoft) and the planetarium program The Sky 6 Professional to achieve something similar.

When I take a CCD image using CCDSoft, if I have used The Sky to point my ‘scope, then the RA and DEC coordinates of the frame centre are written to the image file. The image can then be linked to The Sky and the Sky will then produce an inventory of stars and asteroids (if any) recorded in the CCD image.

Cheers

Dennis
