Celestia References in Technical Papers

Post #1by Guest » 07.04.2004, 22:23

Since I'm writing a technical paper and plan on using Celestia for some plots, could Chris or anyone else tell me what the proper way to reference Celestia would be?

As far as I know, there's no standard way of referencing software packages in publications. I'd appreciate a note that Celestia was used to produce the plots--I'm sure any way that you choose to do it will be fine with me.

Can you share any details about your paper?

Its just some trajectory work I've done. I plan on having it published as a NASA technical report, after which it should be accessible from a NASA website. Once that happens, I'll post the link here for you.
