In full quarantine due to the COVID-19 emergency and one of the daily problems has also become that of managing not to get bored. And above all, being able to distract children and boys. For this reason today we dedicate the day to Celestia, explore the Universe in 3D.
What are we talking about? An incredible one 3D space simulator in real time. In fact, you can travel between real planets and stars. One of the great things about this program is obviously its being Open source and his being multiplatform. In fact, it is possible to download it for all operating systems. You will find it on Windows, on Linux come on macOS. Always for free.
Celestia, explore the Universe in 3D
It is therefore not really a game but being a simulator it can become one with a little imagination. Do you think that it is even possible to install different addons to have the spaceships Of Star Wars and those of Star Trek!
In short, in these days of quarantine and boredom it is possible to leave your home even if only with your imagination. Have fun both alone and, possibly, together with your kids exploring the entire Universe without any limitation.
The database of Celestia includes more 100,000 celestial bodies, can be viewed constellations and orbits. Do you think that even the NASA and theESA they used it during some educational lessons. Second Wikipedia even some textures designed by Celestia artists were used in the film The Day After Tomorrow of 2008 and in the mini series The Andromeda Strain. This is just to make you understand the importance, majesty and precision of this project.
Fasten your seatbelts and have a good trip!
