Description:



SOLAR SYSTEM OBJECTS CAN GET CLOSE TO THE SUN DURING THE PERIOD COVERED IN THE EPHEMERIS COMPUTED BY WAKUSEI. OBSERVERS ARE WARNED TO BE WARY OF OBSERVING ANY OBJECT NEAR THE SUN. NEVER POINT ANY KIND OF OPTICAL INSTRUMENT AT THE SUN--INSTANT BLINDNESS WILL BE THE MOST PROBABLE RESULT.

"Wakusei" provides real-time ephemerides and data of Solar System objects including Galilean satellites, martian moons, asteroids and dwarf planets, plus a map of the moon and online access to the Digitized Sky Survey.

If not already done, please install the VB runtimes before you install Wakusei.

If your operating system language is other than English, you may need to set the decimal separator in your locale settings from comma to point.

En Francaise:
Pour resoudre le probleme de type mismatch, aller dans Parametres, onglet Systeme puis Parametres regionaux, choisir un autre type de profil, par defaut Francais (standard), utiliser Anglais (Irlande) ou n'importe quel autre profil utilisant la virgule a la place du point comme symbole decimal. Vous pouvez egalement simplement changer le simbole decimal dans l'onglet Nombre en remplacant la virgule par le point.
