Moons of Jupiter - UPDATED...
Hi All,
For those who might need an anstronomical application: this is a little app which shows the position of the 4 Galilean moons of Jupiter in front view and polar view on any chosen date or time. The binocular checkbox displays the moons normal North-South if checked and upside down if not checked with (for use with a telescope). The app has no helpfunction (yet) but explains itself. The yellow resetbutton resets to the time now. Changing the date or time and then pushing the calcbutton calculates the positions and displays the configuration.
The playbuttons moves the time forward or backward. The = button stops the animation. I deliberately didnot use imagebuttons for this to keep the code simple and adjustable for those who want to change it.
The names of the moons:
I = Io
E = Europa
G = Ganymedes
C = Callisto
Have fun!
Marc
PS: The application is updated as promised a few weeks ago.
