something interesting to try would be some sort of layering method, in which we take the image of the nebula, and go over the little details with a layer marker to define certain parts of the image as being in front of other parts. Also, it should be possible to define the shape of certain parts, su...

basicly, this thread is to talk about how you felt the first time you foun certain things on your own with a telescope. I saw jupiter and its moons through my telescope last night after I had a look at venus (wich is currently up quite late now, so anyone who has a telescope should take this opportu...

thats the one, thanks.

what happened to that star cluster genertor that used to be around. i remember that it also generated some stars with planets. I think it was selden, but I cant be sure. Im just interested in finding it again. Also, it would be cool to see if it could be updated as well. If anyone knows where it is,...

allowing a script to define a star or any object for that matter changing in size over a certain time. This would allow for demonstraions of the lifecycle of stars. It would be far easier than a making a file with many different objects in it for different sizes. It could even be set so that there a...

basicly, i want to know how hard it would be to use delestia scripts to do a version of the attack "supernova" from the game final fantasy VII in celestia. I am asking because the hardest part would be the expanding sun, while most other parts would involve a sprite explosion, or in the case of the ...

i tried doing that, but that also did not work.

all the information text (except for the numbers and the words for the magnitude), names (except for star names) and other things have all had their letters replaced by question marks. does anyone here know what might have caused this. I am using 1.5.3 and other than the text, i am having no problems.

I want to make an addon that will allow the scale of a number of different stars (such as antares and vv cep) to be compaired. I just want to know what method i should use. for example, should I set them up as a dsc so i can get the size correct, or would a different method be better, because i woul...

does anyone else seem to have the ability to post a sticky?

finaly eclipses occurr on planets in other solar systems. yeah.

space elevator works, ringworld doesn't

i only recently found out that rassilion has left after the fight between don and toofri(sp?). I was away for a while so i would like to know.

this is very great. everybody is all friends again.

ooohhhhh. perrrrrrrrrrtyyy.

ummm... some places charge over $1000 U.S for textures of the size that are default to celestia. I probably would glady pay 60 dollars for a 23k texture.

where is it downloadable from

i had a sleeping dream wherecelestia rendered star movement and star lifetimes.

it is supposed to be funny. someone thought someone found it so i decided to make one.

i have seen an asteroid collision movie where the story is about the controversy of the comming asteroid. it was pretty bad. they stole an avelanche from discovory channel, a scene of running outside and seeing an erupting volcano from dantaes peak (it as mirror imaged to try to make it look like it...
