I have another question.


When I trying to press the "!" key (shift + 1) accendently press the two key resulting as "@" key and a Edit Mode appeared on the top of the celestia screen.

What is this "Edit Mode"?






Thanks.

It lets you use the mouse to change the orientation of the selected object. It can be useful when trying to get an SSC or DSC entry exactly right.

A description of how this can be used for DSC objects is at http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/~seb/celestia/billboard.html#6.0
