:)

Thank you guys for your fast reply. I just thought that my request would have been so stupid that nobody wants to answer. What I was thinking of when posting this wasn't just a FAQ section which can be updated automaticly into Celestia but some kind of huge help section which is just as dynamic like...

no interest ?

hmmm... seems not to be important to you :cry: It was just one of the features I thought which might be useful because a better documentation would mean better publicity in the end 'cause the better the docu the more user use it and the more user the better the publicity and this might mean a greate...

request: better structured user's FAQ

When browsing through Celestia's user's FAQ to avoid posting a topic to the forum where the answer might be already a topic in the FAQ, I noticed that you have to browse through a lot of irrelevant topics until you find out whether the one you are looking for is there or not. :idea: My idea: Isn't i...

more confusion

Thank you guys for your help. I just found that Celestia is pointing to the correct texture part if I put in Beagle 2's landing coords. But how do I synchronize a texture with Celestias planet longtitude and latitude ? (sorry for my bad english) if I'd like to use another texture. How can I check ou...

flight path of space crafts

Hi. I'd like to know if there's a way to visualize a space crafts path (e.g. ESA's Mars Express). I know that you can use TLE data which can be transformed to SSC format but I think that TLE and thus SSC just describe orbital objects, so it is not possible just just to get a simple line in Celestia'...

texture aligment of planets

Hi, I use Celestia for quite some time. But now I ask myself how precise is the texture alignment of the planets? If you look at Earth everything seems allright: If I let Celestia to go to 52.1°N, 10.5°E it looks like the location is somewhere in Germany, which is correct. But if I let it go to 11.6...

thank you

thank you guys.
it would be great if updating orbital data for sattelites to celestia can be done by a click in the future.
is this already a topic for the TODO list ?

moreover it would be nice to know how precise the data is. :)

Forecast of passes of ISS or Huble Space Telescope

Hi. I'm a beginner of Celestia and I'm very impressed of it. I want to know how precise the constellations of planets and other objects like satelites are. I assume that a forecast of visible passes of ISS is not (yet) possible ( :?: ) At http://www.heavens-above.com you can find out when and where ...
