Default FA: Distant Suns 5.0 CD for Amiga
This is a great program! Includes CD and printed manual.

Works on every Amiga I have tried it on - As long as there is a hard drive and CD-ROM drive.

You are right. Distant Suns is cool. It, along with Digital Universe, make an excellent suit of astronomical programs for the Amiga. Both were developed on Amiga. Distant Suns was re-written for Windows, lost it's charm though.

I have other astro programs on other platforms, but, use these for quick reference and ease of use.

This is one of those programs that will keep the Amiga being used for ages. You're right about the windows version - it lost all of its charm. The Amiga version v5.0 is a great program! This one program makes it worth keeping a real Amiga around...
