Explore space from your computer
Wanted to know what it will be like to travel through the universe at any direction, at any speed you want?
Celestia is a free 3D astronomy software, which is available for Windows, Linux and Macintosh. Just install it on your computer and start exploring the universe as if you where in a spacecraft. It's a great education software, used even by NASA, as the visual feel makes it easy to understand about the world around us.
You can see planets, stars and even small spacecrafts on this program. You can interact with them by seeing them from different angles and directions as you wish, which is impossible to do in a planetarium.
You can download Celestia for free from: http://celestia.sourceforge.net/
