Celestia now being used by the History Chanel, The Universe?

Post #1by MKruer » 21.02.2008, 00:13

I was just watching Season 2 Episode 10 of The Universe, and I saw what looked like a screen capture form Celestia. Its right at the time they are talking about Wolf-Rayet star. A shot of a star is show on the screen. It looks like a white circle, but the tip off was that the background galaxy brightened as it goes though the star halo just like in Celestia.

This is unaltered. I shit you not.

Chirs, I think you need to contact them and demand some compensation. Like a new server for the forums? :twisted:

Funny... inappropriate uses of Celestia being revealed by it's persistent and familiar "NONSENSE PHYSICS features" ;-)
