Future enhancements

It would be nice to see in a near future something like this in Celestia:

Ooooops perhaps not so near ..... :twisted:

Nowadays 3D graphics can do incredible things.

What about the proposal of brake the Celestia development after 1.5.0 and start with a 2.0 version that will support only High end graphics hardware?
Remember: Time always flows, it is the most precious thing that we have.

The video is pretty incredible! 8O
Now I'm wondering if this is realistic enough... (I mean in relation to the size of the "dust" particles...)
