Detailed Description

window showing detailed information for a selected object.

The window is split into four Tabs: General, Links, Advanced and Log. The General Tab displays some type-specific data about the object, as well as its present coordinates and Rise/Set/Transit times for the current date. The Type-specific data are:

• Stars: common name, genetive name, Spectral type, magnitude, distance
• Solar System: name, object type (planet/comet/asteroid), Distance, magnitude (TBD), angular size (TBD)
• Deep Sky: Common name, other names, object type, magnitude, angular size

The Links Tab allows the user to manage the list of Image and Information links listed in the object's popup menu. The Advanced Tab allows the user to query a number of professional-grade online astronomical databases for data on the object. The Log tab allows the user to attach their own text notes about the object.

The General Tab includes a clickable image of the object. Clicking the image opens a Thumbnail picker tool, which downloads a list of mages of the object from the network, which the user may select as the new image for this objects Details window.
