"MacAstronomica generates sky maps at any time, from
anywhere on Earth. The maps show all the planets and stars
visible to the naked eye, as well as some galaxies and nebulas,
the Ecliptic, meteor showers and the Milky Way. Constellations
are drawn in their traditional form, and a table lists the
visible objects. MacAstronomica also features an Orrery that
simulates the solar system, a sundial/moon dial. The interface
is very elegant and easy to use. Version 2.0.5 integrates
eSellerate's real-time payment processing system. Users can
now buy the full version in just a few seconds, any time of
the day or night."

"Celestia is a free real-time space simulation that
lets you experience our universe in three dimensions. Unlike
most planetarium software, Celestia doesn't confine you to
the surface of the Earth. You can travel throughout the solar
system, to any of over 100,000 stars, or even beyond the galaxy.
All travel in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature
lets you explore space across a huge range of scales, from
galaxy clusters down to spacecraft only a few meters across.
A 'point-and-goto' interface makes it simple to navigate through
the universe to the object you want to visit."
