If something helps one meditate - even electronic software - then there's no reason not to use it. If something improves your connectedness then go for it because it's a positive outcome.
If it's a 'ghost detector' or a PKE meter, Ghost Busters style, then I see those as frivolous distractions but I am aware that some love to try such devices.
I think it's important to focus first on the basics, though, and the world of the stars and planets doesn't get us any closer to spirituality. Interesting subjects but not spiritual ones, at least not for me.
