Stellarium - the program is a desktop planetarium, which in real time shows a realistic 3D image of the starry sky. The application with the highest degree of realism reproduces the pictures that we can see with the naked eye, as well as through the lens of binoculars or a small telescope. The application is a great educational tool, and is strongly recommended to parents who want to acquaint their children with the basics of astronomy, and to all who like to look at the starry sky. Even a child can easily master a simple and convenient interface.
Stellarium provides the visualization of more than 120,000 stars registered in the Hipparcos catalog, as well as other objects in space under the Messier catalog. Among the most interesting features of the product are the time management function, generating the location of stars observed from anywhere in the world, photorealistic landscapes, imitating atmospheric optical phenomena, displaying coordinate grids, adding signatures for all objects, as well as searching for objects, playing orbits and trajectories of planets and highlighting the constellations by connecting lines.
