This is a simple program that displays a map of the north celestial pole, it can be configured to show the same view as your polar alignment telescope. PolarView's main purpose is for accurate polar alignment in the field. All good astronomers will know that the pole star 'Polaris' or the 'North Star' is not exactly on the north celestial pole, indeed, due to precession, nutation and proper motion it's position is moving, so, if like me your Vixen GPDX mount is fitted with a reticule that only shows the precession up to the year 2000, then this is the software for you. Unlike a polar alignment reticule, you don't need to adjust this for the date and time, the software does this for you. Available for Windows and Pocket PC
