Try to "speed up" time by pressing the "L" key several times. Use "K" to slow down again.

You need to look over the Manual to get a handle on how things work. Also if you look in the pulldown under help/controls you will see all of the keyboard short cuts that will make Celestia more managable. I suggest you memorize a few keyboard commands everyday. In no time at all you will be doing the whole thing without touching the mouse. This is the best way to get the most out of the program .
