Just one month after launch, the enhanced AccuWeather.com Astronomy Center has introduced the most extensive collection of astronomy-related widgets available online, addressing the needs of  beginners, experts, and everyone in-between.  At this time, the following are available:

• Space Weather Widget -- Features a NASA Solar Monitor with almost real-time information on solar activity. (For Windows Vista™ users.)
• Solar Eclipse Calculator -- Computes local circumstances of any solar eclipse from 1970 to 2039! (For Mac OS X^® users.)
• Antonin-Ruki Lunar Atlas Gadget -- Details the lunar surface as seen through a telescope. (For Windows Vista™ users.)
• Meteo Showers -- Perfect for stargazers, it keeps track of eleven of the most spectacular meteor showers and notifies users when they are active. (For Yahoo! Widgets users.)
• SOHO Solar Prominence Feed -- For users of the "Coronado's Line of Solar Telescopes" it provides hourly updates from NASA's SOHO Project. (For Windows Vista™ users.)

In the initial phase, the site offers five new widgets but is open to submissions and expects to add new applications.  All downloads are simple, free, and available through the AccuWeather.com Astronomy Center (http://www.accuweather.com/astronomywidget.asp).
