"In connection with the new Dark Wing Universe book project, I've been employing a wonderful piece of software: Astrosynthesis, by NBOS Software....as a result I have so far mapped out the Inner Sphere - roughly 30 parsecs from Sol System. The program is highly recommended."

Over the years I have tried almost all of the programs for star mapping, and written a few myself. But AstroSynthesis is by far the best. Nothing else even comes close. I tell everybody that if they have any interest in 3-D star maps at all, get this program. It has my seal of approval.

Animation Samples
One of the most exciting features of AstroSynthesis is it's ability to record to video. You can pan around your map, zoom in and out, look at different systems, run animations, and even switch back and forth between Stellar and Orbital displays... all while recording to video. You can then send them to friends, upload them to a video sharing site, or apply further editing using video editing software. The video files produced by AstroSynthesis are .wmv's (Windows Media Video 9), and are supported by most video players.
