    Stellarium has been around for quite a while in the open source community. When used properly, it’s pretty amazing, too. You can zoom into the nebulae and have it produce animations, etc.:

    Richard – I like Stellarium lots. But I like Celestia much, much better.

    Yes, that is also a great program. I’m glad you’re aware of it. :-)

    Nice homage to 2001 in your post title, by the way. Especially since Arthur C. Clarke just passed away. He was a great guy.

    Wow indeed.

    This connects to our recent tweets about the poetry of science.

    Thanks for this.

    (Oh, by the way, I recently learned that deleting the param tags from the embed code will keep the embed from breaking your theme. The least I can offer you in return for this gift. Can’t wait for the download.)
