I have just uploaded Excel Star System Habitable Zone Calculator to the downloads area.

If you know a star's stellar class, it's Apparent Magnitude, and how far (in parsecs) the star is from Earth then you have all you need to calculate the inner and outer bounds of a habitable planetary orbit around that star. Here's a simple Excel spreadsheet that does the math for you.

You can find the file here in the downloads section. Please use this thread for comments.

I don't see the actual download link on the page for it in the downloads section... Sorry if I'm being thick

Man, the UI is confounding. I'll get it uploaded once I'm home from errands.

OK, now it's available. I have a horrible habit of forgetting I have to scroll all the way down to save.
