Look into the Future
The Audiostar Date menu option in the Setup menu is much more than just an entry
of today's date; with it you can look far into the future or learn about past events.
Audiostar can calculate the date and times of future events and, except for eclipses,
past events as well (based on the current calendar system).
E.g., a Sunrise on
March 6, 2043 A.D. or the Vernal Equinox in 1776 A.D. To use this feature, enter the
desired date in the Setup menu and select an option in the Event menu.
Audiostar can calculate dates and times for Sunrises, Sunsets, Moonrises,
Moonsets, Moonphases, Solar and Lunar Eclipses (for the next 100 years), meteor
showers, equinoxes and solstices, and the minimums of Algol.
One very practical use of the date menu is to check the Sunset option to determine
when you can begin your astronomical observing.
