Firefly?

Does anybody remember the show "Firefly"? I think a firefly addon for celestia would be awsome.

I've actually been doing some off-the-cuff research for just such an add-on. Since it is done on my off-time, I haven't gotten much done yet, but pretty much what I know is that I'll have to rely on a majority of fan interpretations, since Whedon never really mapped out the system.

I'm leaning towards a multiple star system, simply to lend the tiniest bit of realism to the set up. There are a few diagrams out there which sketch this interpretation out.

I think a multiple-star system is the most logical choice, one of the main problems is finding 3d models for ships and such.
