Natural History Magazine: Castor

Post #1by selden » 08.02.2009, 17:33

The February, 2009, issue of Natural History Magazine has a brief Skylog article by Joe Rao about the star Castor.
It is illustrated using Phil Batchelor's Castor Addon for Celestia.

For what it is worth here...

I very much liked both the article, and the author's recognition that both
Celestia and the add-on were open-source software, and he went to the
trouble of recognizing our web sites and contributors.

Nice to see in this software-stealing (without recognition) society. :wink:
