User Reviews

  • Thank you very much for the free open source program!
  • .
  • Celestia installs and works right off the bat. Unlike Stellarium that Crashes. Works well though not quite the same concept as Stellarium
  • excellent!
  • I love this planetarium software. I turn it on before going to bed and watch a real time view of places in the solar system while I drift off to sleep. I do wish they'd update it for modern machines as there've been no new versions for awhile. I'd like a 64 bit version to maximize my computational resources.
