Hi guys,
I want to learn how to draw an object and its orbit and to include it in Celestia.
Someone knows if there is a manual or links that may be useful?
I've never done so I need to start with the basics!
Thanks in advance! :)

SSC File Scripting Guide - version 1.0 for Celestia 1.3.2 by Ulrich "Adirondack" Dickmann and Bob Hegwood
describes how to define objects which orbit around the sun and planets.
It's about half-way down the page.

That documentation might be for version 1.3.2. but as far as the orbits are concerned it''s also applicable for 1.5.x.
