Hi I found a very good program that you can travel around the universe. It is easy to use and you can see things like orbits, planets, stars, etc. etc. etc..... You can compare stars sizes. When you click at a star, it is already compared with Sun´s size. It is also possible to download a lot of add-ons that can improve resolutions, add galaxys, add fictitional stuffs like star wars spaceships and etc. Well, very nice program to who likes to travel smoking pot and imagine things. http://www.shatters.net/celestia/
What? It's size is only 15MB O_O and on screens I saw very nice textures. But who knows, Frontier - Elite II had 900kB and whole galaxy
Stellarium is pretty cool also. Have you noticed Venus is just so bright lately? After the sun goes down, backtrack along the sun's trail a couple hours worth and you will see THE BRIGHTEST STAR [isn't a starthough....], it is so cool. I didn't know what it was until I checked on my pooter. The guys at work want to know how I knew it was Venus... Fucking morons, they stare into space for a twelve hour shift and yet they wonder how come I can name a planet.......
Isnt Venus the brightest star that appears first and sometimes disappears last in the night? No need for puter for that, its easy identifiable! In bulgarian it bears both the names Evening-Her and Morning-Her. [sigh, english is so poor of lexical forms... ]
Oh sure, everyone knows that.... not The only reason I GOT the fuckin program was so I could learn what some of that stuff was. If I already KNEW it, I would, instead, just shrug and say to myself, and everybody, "Oh, that's Venuse, you didn't know that? EVERYONE in MY country knows what that is..."
actually venus shouldn t be called star.... in spanish is called lucero del alba: i didn t found translation so i post a pic :/ of the dawn btw the brightest star from earth is sirius, although in europe we can not see it iirc
looool, luceafarul here and u said they copied it all.. nice stuff, jotace got lost somewhere in H34F53J,3, fkn scary don't go there!
btw, FM kinda uber, speeds are waaay over light speed and the map's too large, couldn't find a con for 30min and they complain about FH lol
i used to do stuff like that when i was a kid i drawn circles on the ground and ran outta space very soon, so i changed scale over and over again like on those pics only that i couldnt believe what i saw and i was sure my info are wrong and was shocked when i realized it really goes this way afterall yeah, quite exciting those child discoveries
