There's already been a topic about this. And yes. They're calling it Celestia 1.4 and Celestia 1.5. The later one is currently in development.

Note: Yes. That's right. These versions of Celestia do work for Vista on some people's computers.
Current Setup:
Windows 7 64 bit. Celestia 1.6.0.
AMD Athlon Processor, 1.6 Ghz, 3 Gb RAM
ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics

Hey Ghostrider - if you're still here, I'm using Celestia 1.5 pre3 on my
new Vista-based machine, and it works very well. It's the new OS you
should gripe about. :wink:

You'll be seeing a few remarks here and there describing the hoops we
hafta use in order to run a perfectly good program on the new system.

First thing I did was to mark Celestia (and all other related files and
programs) as XP-compatible. I KNOW that's cheating, but I can't stand
the way that new OS works.

So far, so good.
