Planetarius 1.0

It also gives a 3D view of the Earth and Moon, Jupiter and his satellites and Saturn and his satellites. Additionally gives a Full Sky Map and a Local Sky Map, that is, from the local horizon. Finally it gives us planetary ephemerides using VSOP87 solutions for Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, and ELP82 solution for the Moon. Also gives ephemerides of Pluto and a lot of minor planets, meaning asteroids and comets.

Major Features:

1. Ability to view minor planets, meaning, asteroids and comets, individually as in groups as Atens, Amor, Apollo, etc., also allowing selecting the complete list of Near Earth Asteroids (NEA) provided by NASA.
2. Ability to view positions of Jupiter and his satellites, Saturn and his satellites and the Earth with the Moon.
3. Ability to calculate numerically the positions of the major and minor planets in a window called Ephemeris.
4. Added two simple windows showing the local sky and a Full Sky Map. In the first one is possible to see the local sky from the perspective of the local horizon of the observer. The other shows a map of the sky, in an orthogonal representation of Mercator kind from the local perspective, that is, relative to the longitude and latitude of the observer.
