Astronomy is a very popular hobby, and many people find computer software helps them to pursue this interest. Redshift 4 just goes to show that software can be very flexible in its approach, helping you both to identify what you are looking at in the night sky on any particular date, and learn more about astronomy in general. Past incarnations of this title have been regarded by many as the best astronomy software available.The great thing about Redshift 4 is that it works well for both novice and experienced astronomer. The Sky Diary is on hand for you to look up interesting events for the month ahead from meteor showers to phases of the moon and eclipses. You get an explanation of what each event is, and when best to look out for it. Manipulating the night sky is easy too. You can add and remove objects easily, and can even plot spacecraft as they track across the sky if you want to observe them.
If armchair learning is more to your liking, then you can browse the Photo Gallery, with its 400 plus photos taken with some of the most sophisticated telescopes in the world, or view the multimedia tutorials which talk you through the history of the solar system, the Big Bang, double stars and more. And for a real treat, how about observing the night sky from the surface of Mars, or Jupiter, or the Moon? RedShift always was a powerful piece of software. It just got better. --Sandra Vogel

Children are fascinated by space, the planets, and the idea that there is "something out there". This CD-ROM is a great introduction for younger users, and covers almost everything you can think of to do with space and astronomy.There are 3-D models of famous space craft for you to look at, and interactive areas in which you can put together a rocket ready for launch or land a module on the moon. But this CD is largely a database of information organised in lots of different ways. There are sections on the famous people of space exploration, the history of astronomy, and the different kinds of astronomy that exist today. You can find out how stars are formed and how they die, take a detailed look at all the planets in our solar system and learn about the history of the space race.
You can also take a trip to the Star Dome, which shows what you can see in the night sky from anywhere in the world on any date. Then, when darkness falls, pop outside your own house to see what you can see with binoculars, telescope, or the naked eye.The Eyewitness Encyclopedia of Space and the Universe is packed with information, and presented in the usual Dorling Kindersley easy to use style. It is ideal for any budding astronomer.--Sandra Vogel
