Learn Stellarium

Introduction

Stellarium is a software project that allows people to use their home computer as a virtual planetarium. It calculates the positions of the Sun and Moon, planets and stars, and draws how the sky would look to an observer depending on their location and the time. It can also draw the constellations and simulate astronomical phenomena such as meteor showers, and solar or lunar eclipses.

Overview of Features

Stellarium also provides asterisms and illustrations of constellations from ten cultures, images of nebulae (full Messier catalogue) and several realistic representations. The Milky Way, atmosphere, sunrise, planets of the solar system and their major moons are all represented in the application. Users can also display stars and other celestial objects as seen from reference points other than the Earth (e.g. Saturn, Phobos, comet C/2006 P1 (McNaught) or any other object defined in the ssystem.ini file)

Stellarium's multi-lingual interface features zoom, time control, in-built scripting to record and playback shows, fisheye projection for planetarium domes, spheric mirror projection for personal domes, telescope control, equatorial and azimuthal grids, twinkling and shooting stars, simulated eclipses, landscapes and other deep sky objects.
