Any know how change luminosity of Milky way and clusters?

The only way to change the luminosity of galaxies is to use the same commands as are used for changing the brightness of the stars: [ and ] (there are corresponding script and menu commands)

If the cluster is close enough (within 64K LY of Earth), you can use Rassilon's Cluster Generator to create a grouping of stars at its location. See the thread http://63.224.48.65/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1320

The Cluster Generator requires Celestia v1.2.5pre7 or later. It uses some features that aren't available in v1.2.4.

I hope this helps a little.

Selden,

I have tried the software to create clusters, is fine ! I have checked too commands for the stars and for galaxies available in http://members.fortunecity.com/guilpain/ to see if any works but ....

I think my question to up luminosity, go in the same way of other people I have see in the forum to have a render more realistic of the galaxies.
