If you are enchanted with the planets and the and you don't have one you may well observe and learn about them through the Cosmonium. You can learn the mysteries of Space, explore galaxies far away from the comfort of your home.

Cosmonium is an open source free software based on the (now defunct) Celestia project to render the whole world of astronomy in 3D. With 200MB download file it takes about 527MB space to install. You will need a graphics card that supports OpenGL 2.1+. If your computer can handle it and you have the storage space, you can try HD and UHD textures. These textures need about 1,8 each for download.

The home screen after installation shows a view of the Earth. Displays in the upper left corner the parameters of the selected celestial object such as name, altitude, radius, while the frame rate is displayed on the opposite edge of the window.

The Cosmonium την τρέχουσα ώρα για την προβολή της ημέρας / νύχτας της γης, δηλαδή η πλευρά της γης που είναι μακριά από τον ήλιο θα φαίνεται σκοτεινή. Και ναι, μπορείτε να την περιστρέψετε σε προβολή 360° και αυτό λειτουργεί επίσης με τη γαλαξιακή προβολή.

You can see other planets and stars. Press Enter and search for an object, e.g. Mars. Press Enter again and its statistics appear in the upper left corner, press the G key to go to the planet. This includes a nice moving motion that moves and magnifies the object.
