Well a few things, one cool fix is the depth sorting of markers.

There are at least TWO MAJOR new things, in the latest SVN code, which makes 1.5.0 a useless version (at least to me) :

1- the clickable false option for SSC (and maybe for STC too, in another version to come), which makes an object unclickable in Celestia's space. This is, to me, an extremely important feature.

2- The markers are now depth sorted, which is EXTREMELY great to me (much less confusion, when you have lots of markers all around the head).

Just because of these two new features, Celestia 1.5.1 is already MUCH better than 1.5.0.
