samuel_trassare@12007 4 Unlike most planetarium software, Celestia doesn't confine you to the surface of
samuel_trassare@12007 5 the Earth. You can travel throughout the solar system, to any of over 100,000
samuel_trassare@12007 6 stars, or even beyond the galaxy.

samuel_trassare@12007 8 All movement in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature lets you
samuel_trassare@12007 9 explore space across a huge range of scales, from galaxy clusters down to
samuel_trassare@12007 10 spacecraft only a few meters across. A 'point-and-goto' interface makes it
samuel_trassare@12007 11 simple to navigate through the universe to the object you want to visit.

samuel_trassare@12007 13 Celestia is expandable. Celestia comes with a large catalog of stars, galaxies,
samuel_trassare@12007 14 planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and spacecraft. If that's not enough, you can
samuel_trassare@12007 15 download dozens of easy to install add-ons with more objects.
