DESCRIPTION

Starry Night Widget... Whether at home or at work, keep Starry Night astronomy software at your fingertips.

Faster than a shooting star, the Starry Night Widget will bring the sky for any location to your Macintosh OS X Dashboard in an instant.

Set your location by zip/postal code or by latitude and longitude, and the widget flips to show a view of the current sky. With a touch of a button, see the sky from all directions.

It's easy to customize your view. Choose to show constellations, the horizon, the ecliptic line, and labels for the celestial sights above.

The Widget refreshes your sky image every few minutes so you are always looking at something new.

MACUPDATE ADMIN  Well, it works for me, saves last location after quitting. I even restarted recently and checked it, still set for my locale and displays it. Works very well.
