The author contact and educational game information are included on the ASTRONOMY1.SDK disk. The ASTRONOMY2.SDK will give you a quicker idea of the scope of the program. This program is titled ÔTrip Into SpaceÕ. ItÕs an educational Astronomy game for teaching grade school level skills in Astronomy and Space information. The program is well made with HGR color animation and options for selecting the correct answer to questions by multiple choice. The programmer and author - Alan McRae sent the disk to me by US mail for freeware release to the general Apple II users and community. The program should prove useful in teaching needs with most teachers and parents that have Apple II computer models for such use.
