Thought I'd pass this along. I had this software several years ago on my old computer (I am currently downloading it now on my new one) and it is AWESOME for anyone interested in astronomy, great learning tool for kids and parents. I used to like to turn the lights off, crank up some Bach and cruise through our galaxy. Looks like they have done a ton of enhancements since I had it before with a lot of add-ons too. Best of all it is free! www.shatters.net/celestia/index.htmlCruise through space seamlessly! Screen shots below:

I use Starry night pro 4. I can even use it to point my telescope. I use a Meade LXD55, Schmidt-Newtonian, a goto scope. I'll download this and check it out, thanks buddy.
