Cygnus Astro Get ready to do astrophotography from your mobile phone! Cygnus Astro enables astrophotographers to use a mobile touch-friendly interface to control their equipment from N.I.N.A. software. No matter if you have a laptop, or a mini PC, you can replace that complex UI with a mobile app. When in the field, you're able to connect, monitor, and control all your astrophotography equipment without worrying about a desktop interface. Turn your PC on, and forget about it! Key features: - Connect your equipment (mount, camera, electronic focuser, etc.) using a simple button - Launch and monitor your advance sequence - Perform your Three-Point Polar Alignment without having to hold your laptop - Preview your exposures in real-time - Fully open-source. This app is, and will aways be free Cygnus Astro uses N.I.N.A. PC software and the N.I.N.A. Advanced API plugin to communicate with your PC. This app is not a replacement for N.I.N.A. or your PC.

Whether you're an astronomy enthusiast, eclipse chaser, or curious observer, this app lets you explore, calculate, and simulate solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and planetary transits with remarkable detail. Discover when and where future eclipses will be visible, how they will appear from your location—or anywhere else on Earth—and explore historical events spanning centuries. From global visibility maps to detailed local circumstances, everything you need to plan and enjoy these extraordinary astronomical events is at your fingertips. Key Features: • Complete database of all solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and planetary transits from 1900 to 2100, with an optional extension covering 1550 to 2300. • Detailed calculations of the general circumstances for every event, including global visibility maps. • Accurate local circumstances for any location worldwide, including contact times, duration, Sun or Moon altitude, and other observational data. • Interactive maps showing eclipse visibility and local conditions. • Realistic simulations of eclipses and planetary transits from your chosen observing location. • Animated simulation of the Moon's shadow crossing Earth's surface during solar eclipses. • Animated simulation of the Moon passing through Earth's shadow during lunar eclipses. • Choose any observing location using GPS, a built-in location database, or manual coordinates. • Lunar limb profile and Baily's Beads calculations for advanced eclipse observation. • Sky simulation during totality. • Continuous GPS tracking with live updates of contact times—ideal for observing from moving locations such as ships. • Add eclipses and planetary transits directly to your personal calendar. • Built-in countdown timer for upcoming events.
