..^U:BRAIN. S O L A R S C O P E .. BY BOBBY GERMINO.. A WI SE MAN ONCE SAID, "IT'S A SAD.AND BEAUTI FUL WORLD". HE WAS.SPEAKING OF THE EART H ITSELF BUT THE.SAYING ALSO HOLDS TRUE FOR THE SOLAR.SYSTEM. WE HAVE A LOT OF BEAUTY AND.SADNESS IN STORE FOR US AS WE LEAVE.THE PLANET... THE BEST WAY TO BE PREPARED FOR.OUR DESTINY IN SPACE IS TO STUDY THE.EARTH'S NEIGHBORS. SOLARSC OPE IS.FULL OF INFORMATION ON THE SUN, T HE.PLANETS, THE ASTEROIDS, COMETS,.METEO RS, AND THE MOST IMPORTANT PLACE.IN OUR FUTURE, THE MOON... SOLARSCOPE IS LIK E HAVING A MINI-.ENCYCLOPEDIA ON DISK. FOR EACH BODY.IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM THERE ARE ALL.SORTS OF DATA, SOME OF WHICH ARE .FAIRLY TECHNICAL, EVEN FOR AN.ASTRONOMY UNDERGRADUATE. BUT DON'T.WORRY, BOBBY GERMINO HAS THOUGHTFULLY.ADDED TERMINOLO GY TO HIS MENU. THIS.SUBMENU TELLS YOU WHAT THE.ABBREVIATIONS STAND FOR. THE T ERMS.THEMSELVES NEED A LITTLE MORE.EXPLA NATION SO LET ME GET OUT MY.FUNK AND WAG NALL'S...ALBEDO - THE RATIO BETWEEN THE LIGHT.REFLECTED FROM A SURFACE AND THE.T OTAL LIGHT FALLING ON THE SURFACE..A MEA SURE OF 'BRIGHTNESS'...A.U. (ASTRONOMICA L UNIT) - A UNIT OF.DISTANCE EQUAL TO TH E EARTH'S.DISTANCE FROM THE SUN, APPROXI MATELY.93,000,000 MILES...ECCENTRICITY O F ORBIT - A FIGURE THAT.REPRESENTS HOW U NCIRCULAR A PLANET'S.ORBIT IS. THE LARG ER THE FIGURE, THE.MORE ELLIPTICAL AN OR BIT IS...ESCAPE VELOCITY - HOW FAST A OB JECT.MUST BE GOING TO OVERCOME THE GRAVI TY.OF A BODY AND LEAVE IT. FOR.INSTANCE , THE ESCAPE VELOCITY FOR.EARTH IS ABOUT 12 KILOMETERS/SECOND......INCLINATION O F EQUATOR TO ORBIT - THE.ANGLE WHICH A B ODY'S EQUATOR MAKES.WITH THE PLANE OF IT S ORBIT AROUND.THE SUN...INCLINATION OF ORBIT TO ECLIPTIC - THE.ANGLE WHICH A BO DY'S ORBIT MAKES WITH.THE ECLIPTIC. THE ECLIPTIC IS THE.PLANE FORMED BY THE SUN 'S EQUATOR..JUST ABOUT ALL OF THE PLANET S' ORBITS.ARE ON THIS PLANE...MAXIMUM MA GNITUDE - THE LARGEST.APPARENT SIZE OF A BODY AS SEEN FROM.EARTH. THE MAXIMUM M AGNITUDE USUALLY.OCCURS WHEN THE BODY IS CLOSEST TO.THE EARTH....ORBITAL VELOCIT Y - THE SPEED OF A.BODY RELATIVE TO THE SUN...SYNODIC PERIOD - THIS ONE IS TRICK Y..WHEN A PLANET, THE EARTH AND THE SUN. ROUGHLY FORM A STRAIGHT LINE THROUGH.THE SUN, THE PLANET AND THE EARTH ARE.IN CO NJUNCTION. A SYNODIC YEAR IS.THE PERIOD OF TIME BETWEEN.CONJUNCTIONS. ASTRONOM Y BUFFS MAY.ARGUE WITH ME ON THIS. IF S O, I.ASSURE YOU THAT I WILL BACK DOWN.QU ICKLY. FOR ONE THING, THERE ARE.TWO CON JUNCTIONS, ONE WHEN THE BODY.IS ON THE S AME SIDE OF THE SUN AS THE.EARTH, AND TH E OTHER WHEN THE BODY IS.ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SUN FROM.THE EARTH... TH E OTHER TERMS USED IN SOLARSCOPE.ARE REL ATIVELY STRAIGHTFORWARD AND.DON'T REQUIR E ANY EXPLANATION... WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND ONLY A FEW.PLANETS WERE KNOWN TO MA N I USED TO.READ UP ON ALL OF THIS STUFF . I CAN.ASSURE YOU THAT IT'S MORE FUN U SING A.PROGRAM LIKE THIS THAN TO PORE OV ER.DUSTY TOMES IN A BACKWOODS LIBRARY..D ON'T GET ME WRONG THOUGH, I'M STILL.A TO ME FAN; IT'S JUST THAT THERE ARE.MORE FU N WAYS TO LEARN THAN THERE.USED TO BE... .... WE DON'T USUALLY PRAISE.COMMERCI AL SOFTWARE ON LOADSTAR BUT I.THINK THAT I NEVER APPRECIATED THE.BEAUTY (OR SADN ESS) OF THE SOLAR.SYSTEM UNTIL I TRIED T HE HALLEY.PROJECT BY MINDSCAPE... IT' S A TERRIFIC PROGRAM THAT HAS.YOU TRAVEL AROUND THE SOLAR SYSTEM.LOOKING FOR BOD IES THAT HAVE SPECIFIC.PROPERTIES. I HA D TO DIG OUT MY OLD.ISAAC ASIMOV BOOKS T O FIND OUT WHICH.PLANET OR MOON I WAS SE EKING..SOLARSCOPE WOULD MAKE A PERFECT.C OMPANION PIECE FOR THIS PROGRAM..TOO BAD THE C-64 ISN'T MULTI-TASKING.SO THAT YO U COULD RUN BOTH PROGRAMS.SIMULTANEOUSLY ... PLAY AROUND WITH SOLARSCOPE AND.Y OU'LL FIND THAT YOU COME AWAY WITH A.CLE ARER VIEW OF MAN'S PLACE IN THE.UNIVERSE . FOR NOW, WE ARE OF THE.EARTH -- SOMED AY WE'LL BE FROM SOL..I CAN HARDLY WAIT. ...DISK FILES THIS PROGRAM USES..SOLAR B OOT SOLARSCOPE.SPRITES T.SOLAR BOOT.. **** END OF TEXT ****.
