Anyhow, I inform you that after a long work, on May 1st 2004 we opened the new Frasso Sabino Astronomical Museum, in the same building that hosts our 157 Frasso Sabino Observatory.
Museum’s name is “Citt? delle stelle”, that can be traslated as “Star Town”.
The link is:

The main reason for which I’m giving this information is this:
if Celestia would not exist, the Museum would have never been realized. In fact, the pleasure I had in using Celestia a couple years ago made me think how useful it could be for public shows, so I prepared a proposal and searched for whom could help me in this realization.
Now we use some scripts, created or partly or heavily modified by me from existing ones, for public shows, lesson for students, conferences for teachers of low-middle school levels.
And the truth is that always, and I repeat always, we obtain big success in this, thanks to Celestia and all the people who allows it to exist.
(BTW, all our activities are absolutely free for everyone, without limitations)
So, I’m pleased to send my very very big “thank you” to Chris, just to avoid the problem to forget someone, but consider this “thank you” as spread to all the wonderful people that allow Celestia live and grow better and better, programming, creating textures, new worlds, models, documentation, and giving new ideas.
Thank you, Celestians!
Go on along this way, boys, it’s the right one!
