Soon I am going to finish my "Shrox Spacing Guild" Celestia. Atfer I clear it with Chris, I will make it available. It will have some new planetary maps, and should generally be pretty nifty. Next I will make a 1950's Colliers/Von Braun version. Sweet!

New maps of the current planets, some maps are missing data and some have seams.

This sounds like it'll be great, Shrox . . . Any luck getting recent versions of Celestia to run yet?

Oh yes, Collier/Von Braun, i don?t have the link here, but there is a small trailer movie to be found on the net somwhere about what could have been. Brilliant

And wich reminds me, some of you here must know and use Orbiter http://www.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/~martins/orbit/orbit.html, strangely enough no-one there has ever done a Collier/Von Braun mod.
