Neat.

Are the colours for the Owl Nebula (the spherical one there) real? Are there any hubble photos of it? All I could find were fuzzy black and white images, I'd like to see a photo of that for real in all its glory :)

Very nice, Astroboy. My sky looks very beautiful since you populated it.

But with so many objects, I have to ask to your after sales service to buy a new graphic card for my computer... :lol: Your addons bring it to its knees !
