Hi!

I was really close to buy RedShift4 when I found Celestia. The questions is simple for those that are also using RedShift4, Do I really need it? or Celestia give me all what I need :?:

P.D.

Celestia is awsome, I'm using it with an XGA LCD projector, projecting an image of 6.2' wide by 4.8' tall. WOW :!: :!: :!: 8O

I haven't got Redshift 4 I'm afraid.... but from what I've heard I'd go out on a limb and say that Celestia is better for 3d-modelling the galaxy, whereas Redshift is designed more as a planeterium-type piece of software. It probably contains a lot more off-line info than Celestia, but I doubt you'd get anything you couldn't find somewhere on line.
