I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good freeware option for predicting star, planet, moon and sun altitudes and azimuths in the 2102D style. I know Celestair sells software called SkyPlot for PC and I'd be interested to hear reviews even though it's not free. I recently found an online program at www.weatherunderground, the link is:http://www.wunderground.com/sky/index.asp. It's a very nice program but the input for location is zip code rather than lat-long so it's not much use for passage planning and the plots don't print out very well.
