Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I used to have Redshift Planetarium software. It's out in the garage somewhere, but I thought I'd order this newer software to put on my new computer instead of Redshift because I figured it would be more up to snuff, being newer software (plus, the name Isaac Asimov was a selling point for me; I admire and respect the old guy, may he rest in peace. But I was sooo wrong!
With Redshift, I could move my POV out into the solar system in stunning 3-D, stand on another planet and observe from there, perhaps look at Saturn from the surface of Titan, or my POV could follow the progress of a NASA mission like Voyager or Apollo 11 from start to finish in sped up time. I used to sit for hours just outside the atmosphere of Mars watching the ACCURATE terrain move slowly by below me or just fly from one moon of Jupiter to the next #did I mention all of this is in 3-D?). You can't do any of that stuff with this so-called "Planetarium" flat-earth software.
I can't beleive Isaac Asimov put his name on this stuff while he was alive unless needed the money, because the Dr. Asimov that I knew and loved would have had a lot more class.
I think I'll go out to the garage and find my Redshift.
