Now we have to look carefully at other missions...

New extrasolar.* wanted quickly!

Thank You very much, Buggs for this big and fantastic work!

Yeah, 8k is really pleasant Are you going to upload it as add-on?

Does this version not need additional support for processing BLEND file?

Is it possible to get a model of Kepler for free? Models which i found are too expensive NASA's 3d resource offers only models in formats not readable for Celestia. Maybe somebody is working to take an add-on?

Wow, nice My previous data was taken from HORIZONS Web-Interface. Thank You very much!

I'll be very grateful if somebody share correct orbital data with me! At the moment I'm using following lines: EllipticalOrbit { Epoch 2456306.5 Period 3.168808464522018E+92 PericenterDistance 3.015492435598970E-01 Eccentricity 0.999964555305765E+00 Inclination 8.420747171680337E+01 AscendingNode 6....

Solar System Browser :idea: Recently, I think it could be nice to have got Solar System Browser with "nearest" option, like in Star Browser. For example, when we fly away to other objects this option may be helpful to better review of near environment. Also I found about close approach of...

OK, thanks to all of You I found "Shift + ?" and "-" shortcuts in Celestia User's Guide. Really nice tool!
I'm still quite fresh user of Your great program

I have got the following example: when we look at Jupiter from short dinstace (using G key), its Great Red Spot is in the same place, such as we look at Jupiter from Earth with large magnification. Its moons are visible in the same places, too. Normally, we can see all that things later (by telescop...

What about orbital parameters for important Solar System bodies in last build version? They are updated or are to be updated in full 1.7.0?

Thank You, I took Triton from: http://webpages.charter.net/myrkwood/celestia/ and combined it in Photoshop with standard Celestia's Triton colours But Uranian satellites I have got still small and I'm looking for...

Hello everybody Do You know where can I get such textures from: Triton 2k, Oberon & Umbriel above 512x256 I have looked for it with Google, but couldn't find...

In Stellarium the problem was solved with a special texture called "Earth shadow".

A question for all users: can you see only black surface of the Moon (instead dark red one) when an eclipse is in full phase? It's simply a bug or it depends on graphic card? I'm dreaming about really looking, dark red eclipses of our Moon

There is a range of star brightness adjustment available via the "[" and "]" keys. I suppose you exploited that option already? Yes, I have tried that adjustment, but it doesn't increase or decrease luminosity of big disc, as seen from small distance. However, I'm looking forwar...

Hello, I'm using "scaled discs" mode to render stars, but even with bright textures they seem too dark for me. Is it possible to make them more luminous by change of any parameters? I found buildstardb.pl file, but it contains infos about B-V factor mainly. Maybe any way?

I've read in the shortcut menu how to alter the fieldview. There has been some posts here about telescope view, but what can you do with it? Can you control your telescope with it like in Stellarium? Oh Yes, as a former user of Stellarium I'm all for this feature. And for simulation of meteors with...

It pretty works Thanks a lot!
