C88 is an informational tool for amateur astronomers. It provides detailed informations about the celestial sphere objects, visible with naked eyes and for the use of an eyepiece of a modest amateur telescope to observe deep sky objects. Complex informations about the planets, sun and moon completes the functionallity of the program. C88 bases on the extensive data of the Bright Star Catalogue (9110 entries) and of the Saguaro Astronomy Club Deep Sky Database (10700 entries). These catalogues provides basic data (i.e. positions, magnitudes, sizes, spectral data, catalogue references) as well as specific data, like double/multiple star informations, variability data or - in the case of deep sky objects - object classifications and descriptions. The data can be printed out in several types of lists and orders. The "solar system section" of C88 gives informations about the pysical, observational and optical parameters of the planets as well as it's orbital and rotational data.

It also shows local weather, animated weather radar, animated satellite images, date and time of sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset, equinoxes & solstices, moon phases, eclipses, meteor showers, daylight saving time, and 27 holidays. It shows the location of the sun, moon, and all of the planets. It can display this information for any day from the year 1600 to 3429. It also has links to maps, aerial photos, topographic maps, dictionary, thesaurus, images of the moon, meteor info, and a calculator. It displays a picture of the current moon phase in the program, on the task bar, in the tray, and in the window icons. Just click on a day in the calendar and all of the info for that day are calculated and displayed. The images of the moon can be animated to show the changing phases. Even the tray icon can be animated. It presents positions in the sky as a simple compass position and angle up from the horizon. There is a clock and calendar for one month, and a calendar showing the entire year for any year. By double-clicking on the program you can change its size and appearance, hence the name ClickClock. The clock can automatically synchronize the computer clock with any atomic clock time server on the internet. All of the event times, such as sunrise and sunset, are accurate to within 1 minute of values published on the US Naval Observatory web site. Click Clock is unique in that the calculation of rise and set times takes into account your altitude above sea level which can change these times by several minutes. Unique graph of sunrise and set times for the entire year. This is a 32 bit program and will run on Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000, and XP. Click Clock is just $5.00 (Five Dollars) but it works fine even if you do not pay for it. There is no time limit. It will run forever.
