Stellarium for Linux 0.11.0

Stellarium is a free GPL software which renders realistic skies in real time with openGL. Stellarium is available for Linux/Unix, MacOSX and Windows. With Stellarium, you really see what you can see with your eyes, binoculars or a small telescope.<br /><br />Here are some key features of "Stellarium":<br /><br />Sky<br /><br />- Over 120000 stars from the Hipparcos Catalogue with name and infos for the brightest ones.<br />- Planets and major satellites in real time (position computation now accurate enough for eclipse or transit simulation).<br />- Drawing of the 88 constellations with their names.<br />- Mythological figures of the 88 constellations.<br />- Textured displaying of more than 70 nebulas (Orion, M31 etc..).<br />- Photo-realistic Milky Way.<br />- Star twinkling.<br />- Shooting Stars.<br /><br />Landscape & visualization<br /><br />- Skinable landscape (ground, fog, mapping of fisheye pictures).<br />- Ultra fast realistic atmosphere rendering (Sunsets, sunrises etc...).<br />- Automatic eye adaptation to sky luminance using physiologic model.<br />- Grids in Equatorial and Azimuthal coordinates.<br />- Equator and ecliptic coordinates lines.<br /><br />Navigation & rendering<br /><br />- Smooth real time intuitive navigation.<br />- Powerfull zoom to see planet and nebula like in a telescope.<br />- Equatorial and altazimutal mount mode.<br />- Standard perspective and wide angle (fisheye) projections modes (e.g for planetarium dome).<br />- Time control (real time and accelered time modes).<br />- Graphical menu for simple utilisation.<br />- Clikable stars, planets and nebulas with informations.<br />- Windowed and fullscreen modes.<br />- Full dome (180??N*?*) projection mode for planetariums.<br />- Text user interface for planetariums.
