WinOrbit
Orbital prediction is determining where a particular object will be at a particular time (past, present or future). This can be done with a general mathematical description of the motion of the satellite (in other words, some equations), and some parameters specific to a particular satellite.

Project AstroFly
AstroFly is a software project, which is intended for educational use; thus, if you are interested in astrophysics, it may help you to expand your knowledge about our Universe. Its main purpose is to present the three-dimensional models of our neighborhood in our own Milky Way Galaxy on a personal computer.

Gravity3D
Gravity3D simulates the gravitational interaction between galaxies as they collide. It uses the gravity equation F=G*M1*M2/R^2 and assumes that orbiting stars have negligible mass compared to the parent stars/black holes. This software renders hundreds of thousands of stars in realtime.

TUBA
The TOURING THE UNIVERSE THROUGH BINOCULARS STAR ATLAS (TUBA, for short) is the only star atlas designed specifically for use with binoculars. Conceived by Dean Williams of Cabot, Arkansas, the atlas plots all of the objects listed in the book plus shows stars to 11th magnitude, a reasonable limit for giant binoculars. (Of course, you can adjust that to show fewer stars, as desired.)
