See the cosmic ballet in your own planetarium


This program is really sweet. I will work on this post later, for now just a description from the website itself. Only so much: it is well worth exploring, I just know you WILL enjoy it.

"Stellarium is a free open source planetarium for your computer. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.
It is being used in planetarium projectors. Just set your coordinates and go." www.stellarium.org

ninite.com helps you set up your very own and individual automated installer. Choose from a (quite well selected) list of essential freeware programs and download the resulting installer program. Run it, and it automatically installs your chosen programs. No stops for pressing "ok", just straight install of the programs, given they are not already installed, in which case the program detects it and updates it if neccessary. The link with which you can download the installer can be saved and used on any system. Its the easiest way to share your basic PC program configuration, or have it ready for when you have the task of setting up a new machine. It is brilliant! If you want, you can start with checking out or even automatically download and set up my selection of fine freeware.
