:cry: :cry:

I just can't download Celestia ! The link does not seem to work : it begins to download then stops immediately.
Does anyone have the same problem ?

Thank you !

We never encountered problems while downloading "Celestia".
We have just made public one of our Data Nodes containing "Celestia".
We are uploading it currently so be patient, done in about hour.

What am I doing? Ah, nothing much. Just laying on my bed, watching the stars, and sky, and keep asking myself: 'Where the Hell is my Roof?'.

It could be a browser-dependent problem.

When I tried to download the Mac OS X version directly from the link on the Celestia home page, I had a similar problem with Chimera/Navigator. The download started and immediately stopped. I think the problem is that the download manager is trying to download directly from the link rather than letting the browser follow it through the redirect to the download page.

I tried using Safari instead, and that worked fine.

We have encountered similar problems with GetRight eons ago... It imply downloaded the file up to 99%... and stopped. You could try begging, maybe it will help [PEM On] :D [PEM Off].
