Help on locating script

[jonasbe]

Hi

I found Celestia just a couple of days ago and it is very impressing.
I was hoping to use it to show my kids (ages 5 & 7) the solar system, but have some trouble locating a nice script.

Does anyone know of a nice script, a bit like the demo.cpl, but perhaps with all planets in our solar system and some satellites and so on. Kind of an extended version of the demo.

Thanks

Jonas

Have you checked out the scripts page on the Motherlode?

Just a thought since I don't know how much experience you've had here.
Thanks, Bob

Well, I found that page, but I really do not have the time to check all scripts, so I was just hoping that someone could give me a hint on a nice script

Oh, okay...
Well you ain't gonna get much help with an attitude like that, but just to show you what a nice guy I am, I've checked them for you.

1. Click HERE to download a script which displays all nine planets in our solar system at once,
and then accelerates time to show the differences in rotation periods.

2. Click HERE to download a script which travels from outside the Milky Way, and back into
our solar system, and then then briefly visits each planet and some moons, on the way to our Sun.

3. Click HERE to download a script which provides a quick, smooth flight passing by
the planets in our solar system.

Maybe you wouldn't mind selecting one of the above?
