astroterm is a terminal-based planetarium written in C that renders real-time positions of stars, planets, constellations, and moon phases as ASCII art. Users can configure sky views by date, time, and location for accurate celestial visualization.
Use cases
- view the night sky from my terminal
- check planet positions for a given date and location
- render constellations as ascii art
- terminal screensaver showing stars
- see moon phases in the command line
- explore past or future celestial events without a telescope
When to choose
- you want a lightweight, fast terminal-based star map with accurate rendering
- you prefer ASCII/TUI visuals over graphical planetarium apps
- you need customizable date, time, and location sky views on Linux/macOS
When to avoid
- you need high-resolution graphical sky rendering or telescope control
- you want deep astronomical computation beyond visual star maps
- you need a GUI planetarium experience
