Shadows is a very valuable program for amateurs and professionals who are just interested in or seriously engaged in astronomy. This application gives its users the opportunity to use the standard and create their own exclusive sundial and astrolabe, based on any of the many templates present in the catalog of the program.

When designing a sundial, the program allows you to preliminarily make any calculations, including, with respect to different places around the globe, to specify and specify the coordinates and parameters of the time zone for each of the places, etc. You can edit a preset at any time and make the necessary corrections to it. Shadows allows you to create and use several common types of sundial: vertical, horizontal, equatorial, polar. The program also supports the creation of flat, conical, cylindrical and spherical design of measuring instruments of a similar plan.

Shadows software allows users to create personalized sundial and astrolabe designs for precise astronomical measurements.

In addition to the construction of sundial, the application also allows you to create other no less interesting astronomical instruments - astrolabe, with which you can measure latitude and longitude, predict the location of stars and make various triangulation calculations. Shadows supports the ability to build and use all the most famous astrolabes: spherical, universal, marine, Islamic, Rojas astrolabe and others.

Another interesting additional feature of Shadows is that all the objects created in the program can be directly from the application to print or export to different formats: BMP, EMF, JPG and even compatible with AutoCAD format DXF.

It is a highly functional program, ideal for astronomy enthusiasts and professionals 🌌. It offers the possibility to design custom sundials and astrolabes, using standard templates or creating your own from a wide catalog. The software not only allows for preliminary calculations related to various locations on the planet, but also specifies the coordinates and parameters of each time zone. Magnificent, isn't it? 🌏 The application also has a function that allows you to modify presets at any time to make corrections if necessary. It is compatible with various types of sundials: vertical, horizontal, equatorial, polar, and supports the creation of flat, conical, cylindrical, and spherical designs 🌐. In addition to sundials, it allows the creation of other equally fascinating astronomical instruments, including the astrolabe, used to measure latitude and longitude, predict the position of stars, and perform various triangulation calculations. The added bonus? All created objects can be printed or exported directly from the application in different formats, including the DXF format compatible with AutoCAD 💻.
