Stellarium is more fun if all you want is planetarium software, but you can do a lot of really cool things with this.
Note: Pour avoir les textures de tous les corps célestes connus, il suffit d'installer les paquets "non-free"... Et après, que du bonheur.
It's pretty good but why do the bookmarked locations start zoomed so far out? When selecting earth, you have to zoom in more than 20 AUs (lots of mousewheel scrolling). Didn't this also have decent textures for the various planets as well as a nice Gnome UI?
Always loved this program! But since I've switched to Mint, I can't get the GTK version (which I prefer) to run. The KDE version works well enough, though.
I love space and stuff and this is a brilloiant tool for the kind of stuff I do.
fantastic software that is very expandable and informative. you'll learn things about the solar system you never knew. a must have
Outstanding educational tool for astronomy and astrophysics. Good scripting language for automation; extendable and genuinely entertaining.
