Stellarium

I totally forgot about this until yesterday Abozzo reminded me.

Have you seen Stellarium? No?

"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."

Awesome.

Excellent.

just like to say we've been using this for over a month for a special astronamy project and it's AWESOME! simple enough for my 5yr old to have fun on, and my 12 and 8 year olds to use more features on and learn lots of really complicated stuff... and FREE!!!
