TheSkyX: An essential tool for observatory control, deep space imaging and scientific discovery.ĪstroGrav: A full-featured, high precision solar system simulator that calculates the gravitational interactions between all astronomical bodies, so that the motions of asteroids and comets are simulated much more accurately than with planetarium applications. Starry Night: Deep sky database of 38,000 objects, highly visual, and includes telescope control with an interactive sky guide. SkySafari 6 Pro: Highly visual planetarium program with telescope control, object information, and access to hundreds of Hubble telescope images. KStars with EKOS: KStars planetarium program with accurate sky simulation and access to many object catalogs, offers planning, custom horizons, telescope control, and EKOS imaging suite. Stellarium: Highly visual planetarium program with more than 1 million objects that includes telescope control. Part of the CloudMakers suite of astrophotography applications.

ASTROGUIDER MANUAL
Observatory: Astronomical Image management with file organization in smart albums, manual and automatic image tagging with plate solving, notes, and Mac Finder Fits, XISF file previews. I can pretty consistently get a good calibration that will accurately track object for 20 seconds with a 400mm lens not too far from the ecliptic.HNSKY (Hallo Northern Sky): 30,000 object database planetarium with INDI telescope control brought to you by the same developer of ASTAP.ĪstroPlanner: Astronomical planning and observation, visualization and logging with telescope control. It takes a lot of practice to get good results and even then they can be limited. When calibrating, go well over the 180 degrees in each direction, smoothness of movement matters, as does keeping the rotation limited to only one axis. It would either not calibrate, or if it would would be so far off I got exaggerated star trails. I once setup on top of some buried power lines and didn't know it until morning, could not get astrotracer to work.
Other than than if you are near power lines, high current drawing appliances, electric motors, large amounts of iron or steel, etc will all affect astro tracer. If this is only your first attempt with astro tracer or one of the first few calibration is what I would look at first. Shake on the tripod looks more like squiggles with stars. I think that when the shutter is released, vibration occurs, which gives such an effectMore than likely you don't have a good calibration with astro tracer or are really pushing what astro tracer can do at the focal length and location in the sky.
