This addon compares the orbital accuracy of Celestia's different versions. Note, there some oddities caused by multiple objects being in the same place, mostly it involves the textures. These were purposely left in.

This is a notable point of multiple objects in the same place in this addon.

Damm, 1.0 was such an outlier!
