Hello,
I just wanted to know what one can use Celestia for without infringing copyright or such.
Would appreciate it if you could just give me a quick answer for the following
questions.
1) If one makes a movie file say of a planet orbiting or something using celestia is it OK
to put it on one's own website for non commercial, just educational purposes? Or does
one have to pay a license fee?
2) If I took pictures of the planets in celestia to display on my website for fun or education
is that allowed or not?
Thankyou if you can clear that up
