Only by adjusting your monitor.

Sorry.

But also, please read the "Preliminary User's FAQ" at the top of the Celestia Users Forum.

I agree, galaxies are too bright.

Also, there should be a way to show galaxies, without the nebuleas, or just the nebulaes without the galaxies.

Do Galaxies have a setting symilar to the star's "magnitude". It would be interesting to see a galaxies' luminosity increase as we aproach it. Other ideas would be a sort of random star generator that would fill up the missing stars in the Celestia universe. If not precision, random does give realism.

Unfortunately there is no magnitude setting for galaxies or nebulas yet.
Therefore all galaxies and nebulas have the same brightness, which results in a odd look, if they're switched on. Only chris knows when there will be a change.
