About six or nine months ago, i DLed Celestia. It's beautiful, but I don't play with it much because it maxes out my CPU. When I'm done paying for my teeth and can get a new computer, I'm going to try it again.
Can I (once I'm no longer using a computer hand crafted by Charles Babbage) do O'Neill habitats, Bishop rings, and other such megastructures? I'm guessing the answer is "yes, but you'll need add-ons," which is fine with me if that's the case.
Its not just a fun application, theres plenty of other good uses. I wish I had discovered this program a year ago, my nephew had to do a project on the Hubble telescope and this might have blown them away.
what date do you go to at 6:03 and no it isn't 01 01 2000, because that isn't a valid date, and is it in local or universal time? those are the only time zones.
@2nDoppelganger Celestia, because is real-time realistic and free! You can expand
program with addons. for example, stock Clestia includes 100,000 stars, but with addon on celestiamotherlode website you can have over 2,000,000 stars and each of these stars you can visit. From time to time at celestiamotherlode website, there are new addons which include newest astronomical findings! Because Celestia is still under development, future versions will be also photorealistic.
@pifko6 I've been to Celestia motherlode and I've downloaded some addons but I don't know how to unzip the files to Celestia. Sorry if I sound like a real noob when it comes to computers, it's because I hate technology.
Huh? I thought Planet Nibiru was real! Without it, 99942 Asteroid Apophis wouldn't exist because it was made out of one of Nibiru's Rock chunks because it got blown up by another asteroid...
apophis is a addon if you have clean instalation of celestia you do not have then apophis. You must install addon. At the beggining of video I wrote that videos was made with addons
@Rabastan Pandora from top (map) looks idle, there must be a fly-by through the forest addon...maybe in future we get that addon with glittering creatures!
might be a bit of a noob question, but i downloaded the cloudmap from motherlode and can't seem to get it working. i've tried changing the solarsys document with no luck, and moving the files around hasn't helped at all. i really want to see the iss gliding over the HD earth :(
Download it again, open the *.zip file and move all the folder and files in *zip file into the directory Celestia/textures/highres if I remmember correcly, just moved the files and folder where are there high resolution textures, you will find it easly. Open solarsys file, and change the cloud speed under the section of Earth to zero, type in 0. Final step run Celestia and press R TO GET HIGH RES TEXTURE TO DISPLAY or r, I don't remember which calls out high res texture to display. Enjoy!
congratulations for your video, with celestia, also trying to make video presentation but I can not shoot with the capture of Celestia. Could you give me some tips to make beautiful movies yours.
No, I checked my record folder, nothing. The problem is, I can't control FRAPS at all in Celestia, it won't let me record, hide the FPS thing or anything for that matter.
OK, uninstall fraps and then try again install it. Check the setting "monitor my desktop" something like that and make sure that key shortcuts are not the same!
OH I forgot. Unchecked benchmark setting if this does not work check it again! Start recording, open any window or refresh the desktop to make sure it is recording by showing red numbers of FPS in one of your corners of your monitor. Note that FPS view must be enabled.
would you like to sent you my version of Fraps by e-mail? Tell me you e-mail trough personal messages on YT, so that nobody can see youR e-mail, exept me. Mine is full working and original.
no it is not. i downloaded from website celestiamotherlode. this model of the space station was designed for Celestia only! On this wbsite you can find models for space station in different construction stages. I used the finnaly one, when the station will be completed.
God!!!! The asteroid in 7:42 , enters on the Earth´s atmosphere, but because of the angul , the atmosphere acts like a window and reflect the asteroid back to space, VERY LUCKY :D. NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is on the website Celestiamotherlode, find link under video description click it and then find the file called Actvity9. To use this you must download Celestia-ED, also downloadable at this website and the Educational Base package also on this website.When you download those find the Word document Activity9.doc on your computer. In this document there are links which shows you scenes, similar to those in video. I used also Fraps to captured video and Windows Movie maker to edit.
Well I downloaded a video from youtube with real player and then extracted the music and used in my own video. Get RealPlayer and download my this video and enjoy in music!
