File size: 167 Mb

Stellarium is a comprehensive utility that helps users explore planets and constellations in a 3D environment. This open-source planetarium gives you details about celestial objects, simulates solar and lunar eclipses, and displays Messier objects and the Milky Way.

Key Features
- Over 120000 stars from the Hipparcos Catalogue with name and infos for the brightest ones.
- Planets and major satellites in real time (position computation now accurate enough for eclipse or transit simulation).
- Drawing of the 88 constellations with their names.
- Mythological figures of the 88 constellations.
- Textured displaying of more than 70 nebulas (Orion, M31 etc..).
- Photo-realistic Milky Way.
- Star twinkling.
- Shooting Stars.
- Skinable landscape (ground, fog, mapping of fisheye pictures).
- Ultra fast realistic atmosphere rendering (Sunsets, sunrises etc...).
- Automatic eye adaptation to sky luminance using physiologic model.
- Grids in Equatorial and Azimuthal coordinates.
- Equator and ecliptic coordinates lines.
- Smooth real time intuitive navigation.
- Powerfull zoom to see planet and nebula like in a telescope.
- Equatorial and altazimutal mount mode.
- Standard perspective and wide angle (fisheye) projections modes (e.g for planetarium dome).
- Time control (real time and accelered time modes).
- Graphical menu for simple utilisation.
- Clikable stars, planets and nebulas with informations.
- Windowed and fullscreen modes.
- Full dome (180) projection mode for planetariums.
- Text user interface for planetariums.

Supported Operation Systems
- Windows 10, 8.1, 7 (32-bit or 64-bit)
