Why Digitalis?

We have organized our software into three packages:

Starter

A budget conscious edition with full multimedia support and the ability to present planetarium sky shows from the Earth's surface.

Basic

A mid-range option, adding Augmented Lessons, scripting, and the ability to travel around the Solar System and explore other worlds.

Professional

Our most advanced software package, adding state of the art functionality and enabling exploration out to the edge of the known universe.

It's simple to get your programming started by purchasing a low cost software package and upgrade later with our remote services after fundraising.
