I bought an iMac recently and purchased Sky Safari 6 Plus. I've used a few different planetarium packages and this is the nicest one I've seen!
I'm interested in observing minor planets and like to find near-earth objects that could use additional observations to improve their orbit accuracy. I have a utility that takes the NEA orbital element subset from the Minor Planet Center and selects entries using different filter criteria to make a custom subset. For example, all objects of a given class with an uncertainty value of 2-6. I'd like to be able to import this subset as a custom asteroid set and then look for objects available from various locations at a given magnitude limit.
Is there a way to import or replace one of the lists available in your software? Or any suggestions on how I could create a custom asteroid subset?
Thanks!
