i think celestia is a perfect partner for GE.
i even found extra-solar planets way, way further than pluto!!!

but i wonder if the colouring on them was made up? or can they tell?

NASA is also a wicked program, much higher res than celestia, and easier to rotate and examine stuff.

so, who has any of these programs, and what do you think of them?

Well I've got Celestia and I really like it, But I think the images of other planets are mostly guess work.

yeah ive since found out anything past neptune is indeed guesswork, based on composition etc.

er, can i have the OK corral in hi-res then?
or is the offer not standing anymore?
cheers
