It's all about visuals.....

Windows 8 is mostly about great visuals, so if you can't see the sky where you are this morning, then you need Stellarium which is your own personal planetarium on your computer, and here's a look at the morning sky from our overcast Vancouver, Canada this morning....


This is a great program! You can search for another planet, for example, and then use that as your own location from which to view the sky, by simply using the keys Ctrl + G. Want to go to Mars? It's easy - just get Stellarium, and enjoy.

Here's a "spaceflight" - a view of Pluto and its moons from Saturn....
