StarTrax^™ Astronomy Program    

StarTrax is a full-featured astronomy program that lets you explore the universe of stars, planets, galaxies, star clusters, and nebulae in the comfort of your home, without concern about the weather outside.  StarTrax is easy to use, with menus, toolbars, status bars, scroll bars, and pushbuttons that respond to your every command.  A detailed tutorial helps you to get started, and context-sensitive help screens will answer any questions you may have as you explore the universe on your own.  The help screens also contain background information and experiments that make StarTrax educational, as well as fun.
