Planet 8.1
Planet is an application in which your Macintosh computes the coordinates of the planets visible to the naked eye (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn), the sun and the moon more>> Planet is an application in which your Macintosh computes the coordinates of the planets visible to the naked eye (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn), the sun and the moon. The coordinates are given in different coordinate systems: the geocentric ecliptic and also the equatorial and horizontal systems of the observer. Further you will see the magnitude of the planets and the phase of the moon and also sidereal time, mean solar time and the equation of time. When a solar or lunar eclipse is possible you can also investigate the eclipse from any place on earth. You can study heliacal risings and settings of planets and stars and also conjunctions, planetary stations and occultations. A special option in the program allows you to check the visibility of the new and old moon crescent.Finally you can study the transits of Mercury and Venus.
System 7.0 or later.

Planet Attacker 2009 20091014

Planet Attacker 2009 20091014 provides you a fascinating and attractive 3D flight action game whose purpose is to destroy all the enemy fighters and ground objects by flying your fighter.
The objects in the game are imaginary space fighter (sort of), but there is an additional configuration called "USAF version" in which the fighters and ground objects look similar to the those actually used in military.
This game has originally been developed in 1991 for a Japanese PC called FM-TOWNS, manufactured by Fujitsu, which had 80386, 16MHz, and 2MB RAM. Not 2GB, 2MB. It even didn't have a floating-point processor. Therefore, the publisher had to cut down polygon count as much as possible, and the low polygon count gives a retro-game like appearance of this game.
RSS-Planet 1.3
RSS-Planet - Custom marker file generator for xplanet and OSXplanet more>>
By default, BBC News, Yahoo! News, CNN.com and the Washington Post are supported, but other feeds that point to articles with place names might work as well.
Note: The Python Imaging Library needs to be installed for favicon display to work. Circles are used by default if PIL is not found. To use the GUI, wxPython must be installed.
RSS-Planet implementation by Martin C. Doege after an idea by Nathan Eckenrode. Various tips/hints are available at the developers website.
Enhancements:
- RSS-Planet can now alternatively output HTML with popup captions.
- If the command line option --web is used, a page called rssplanet.html is generated in the web_path directory.
- Rendering of the background image no longer requires xplanet or OSXplanet in this mode, only the day and night images specified in renderplanet.py.
- Normally, these will be earth.jpg and night.jpg, which are available from from the xplanet/OSxplanet distribtution.

C++ source code using OpenGL / GLUT is included.
Conic Planet 1.2
Free and open source Earth image renderer more>> Free and open source Earth image renderer
Conic Planet is a CGI application which renders a photo-realistic real-time image of the Earth and other planets.
Conic Planet has support for Mercator, Mollweide, Azimuthal, Orthographic, and Rectangular projections. It also shows the current cloud covering.
System requirements:
-
-
Enhancements:
- Added code for enhancment of contrast of the SSEC cloud image and smoothening of seam at 180 deg. longitude line in the SSEC cloud image.
- Added brightness and gamma-correction controls.
- Added support for greyscale (R=G=B) output.

Enhancements:
- Only a TINY change from RC-5: It does a better job of deciding the number of batteries and generators and inverters for you if you have not specified them directly in Plane-Maker Systems screen.
- It is a tiny change, but one that is needed to make all planes work right out of the box without modification. This will solve the problem with the electrical systems in some panes being dead in RC-5: Those planes had not yet had a number of batteries or generators yet specified.

Enhancements:
- Lat-lon waypoints from Goodway-generated flight plans import correctly.
- Rare crash bug when parsing liveries fixed.
- Normal maps are no longer distorted by customized gamma settings.
- X-Plane will generate an Apple crash report instead of a one-line X-Plane crash report in a few cases. This will give us more info when the sim does fail.
- Air driven generator needs to spin a bit more to power the system, as in reality.
- Tail wheel lock applies at a any elevator aft of nuetral, as in reality.
